"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Dont want to make it TL ill keep it short.
Met a girl
Liked her shes cute, smart, ambitious hopes dreams blabla
Only flaw is she can b a little mouthy but ofcourse i put her in her place

Chilled everyday for a week or ate her *****, banged her a little
Had issues with condom so only got a few strokes in

No problem IL still high

So anyway she has been in a few bad relationships
So when i asked her to be my girl she says this.not word for word but more less

"Im scared you will hurt me"
Basically says i dont know..

See she knows a little about me i wont say how but she knows i will cut a girl off quickly and keep it moving if shes not with the program
And i know i should have let her push the relationship thing bht **** i like her and girls i like are rare so i went for it
I wont lie bros im a proud man and i guess im use to hearing what i want to hear from women so
"I dont know" instead of an enthusiastic yes really hurt my pride..
So much so im considering not talking to her anymore at all
What do i do now bros? She is ltr material and im tired of plates
But wtf?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

well it's not a "I don't like you" no.

be patient. give it a little time. you just met her. give it another month or so she'll come around.

i had a girl i liked tell me this as well, my last real GF before i met my wife. the next date, after i dropped her off she was like "do you still want to date me, beucase i want to date you now"


basically just sounds like you're doing the right thing, she just wants to go a little slower. i don't think there's another **** in the picture or anything like that, maybe she really did get treated bad and is cautious. i have no problem with true caution.

All i gotta say man is nothing good comes easy.

If you are that interested in her, like backbreaker said, give her some time.

Now if you keep hearing this after a while, it's time to cut her loose. As she is wasting your time.

3 months. You need to get it in your head that a woman needs at least 3 months before she is comfortable with being your girlfriend. It takes her that long to trust u enough to warrant making u the boyfriend. And SHE should be the one to bring it up. Any suggestions by you about this transition - especially before month 3 - is either going to be met with resistance or will not last because she will feel the decision was rushed.

Oh and to avoid burnout, stop seeing her everyday. Doing this in the beginning will make her tired of you quickly, and she'll suddenly stop returning your calls or text. Hope this helps!

Always let a girl bring up the relationship talk.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

You dont need to ask her out, your already having sex... You skipped that part :rolleyes: Just enjoy each others company and the sex while you can. Its like trying on a pair of shoes, you gotta know if you like it before you buy it. ;)
