She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
Sh1t , getting girls is so out of your reality. You'll have some bad problems in the future if you don't start acting NOW. You'll never have abundance.trv26 said:Also, if not trying to get with other girls, what other practical suggestions do you have to get over a breakup?
Huh? What are you on about? Ok I know I'm not rolling in girls, but atleast i'm trying.Daddy The Pimp said:Sh1t , getting girls is so out of your reality. You'll have some bad problems in the future if you don't start acting NOW. You'll never have abundance.
Well you're doing the right thing by discussing it. There are a few (only a few) people I've seen on this board give good advice. Try other mediums as well. I, for one, used to be a LAME in high school. Since then I've dated hundreds of females, thanks to the stuff I learned from other guys (and a few females) who were "THOROUGH" with game.trv26 said:Fair enough. I don't think she minds chatting however, because often its her starting the conversation. But I do get the point about persistence not changing anything w.r.t. attraction.
Also, if not trying to get with other girls, what other practical suggestions do you have to get over a breakup?
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Do you think she wants a relationship with you? If no, and you still want one with her, you will end up chasing her and it will not end well. Give up before you dig into this problem too deeply.trv26 said:I asked her for phone, said no. Asked her out, she said no.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Dude, listen. If she gave you a direct no, that means NO!trv26 said:Lol, how will I get hurt? And even if I did get hurt, isn't this site all for doing something even if its the wrong thing, but learning something through the experience?
Also I think I'm at the friend-bf juncture, and if I play things right I'll be in.
Is she worth pursuing? If you're just desperate for a girl shes not worth it, become her friend and use the opportunity for practice dealing with women, connections, etc.trv26 said:Also I think I'm at the friend-bf juncture, and if I play things right I'll be in.
