"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Okay, so here's my mistake:

There's this girl I REALLY like, and I asked her if we could date and she said "yes". My mistake was the other night I told her how I felt about her (I loved her... I've loved her for well over a year) . She didn't instantly freak out, but I've got this terrible feeling about the situation.

What should I do? Should I distance myself from her a little or what? I seriously need advice!

if ya got any words o' wisdom, email [email protected] . I really appreciate it.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

You screwed up, she's gone. Of all the things you could have told her that early on, that was prolly the worst. There's no way you can recover from this, all you can do is accept that you failed, learn from your mistake and move on.

Read all this http://sucs.org/~nicholas/djb/index.php before you ever do something like this again. Especially read the anti-dump machine

I agree with MindOverMatter, you'v got oneitis and you vomit your emotion to this girl way too early on. Go on to another girl and keep your mouth shut about your emotions and insecurities.

Oooh, yeah, definitely a bad move. But out of curiosity, what makes you have this "bad feeling" about the situation?

You should have a bad feeling... you screwed up by telling her how you felt.

She doesn't wanna hear it.... she wants you to show her , not tell her.

By telling her what you did, you gave her all the power.

That was probably enough to satisfy her.

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

We were supposed to go see DEBBIE DOES DALLAS : THE MUSICAL on friday, but she tried to push it back to next week. I convinced her to go with me on Sunday instead. I'm thinking about cancelling.

On top of that, yeah, I read all those "Dude, don't be a wuss and tell her how you feel" posts... only I read 'em a little late. Woops. So yeah, bad feeling.

the game is always about learning where you mess up and why. As long as you know where you went wrong and arent clueless now that shes not into you (which you are) you are semi-victorioues. You know know (or should know) to never make this same mistatke again. Learn from every bad experience, where you go wrong, why you messed up. Also, learn from every good experience, what you did right, why it worked this particular time, and how you can do it again. gl bro, keep learning the game and you will master it
