Honestly don't think I ever have had that happen to me
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
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.
To some degree. She's been getting ripped to shreds in "red pill" and "black pill" in circles for a while. Her profile got raised as a result of appearing on a popular podcast to debate Rollo Tomassi.Yeah and you know what OP, she is going to get what she wants.
The common wisdom has been that Latin men are suave guys with machismo and White men are weakening fast. It is known that Italian-American men (mainly in the Northeast region of the USA) are big horn dogs but can be super thirsty. Hispanic/Latin men can act the same way if they are middle class or higher.If there is one stereotype in my head that has been shattered to pieces in my time in Miami, it's that Latin men have good game. Maybe some do but boy oh boy Latin and Italian men are perhaps some of the biggest simps on the planet. Miami has that fake wealth culture so dudes in debt dressed like they work for an important company spoil women like crazy. It is a thing in wealthy Latino culture for women to be treated like princesses and spoiled to the core, which is why I laugh whenever dudes hype up South America unless they want lower class green card chasers.
The reason I mention that is because it pours over on to the Miami dating scene and culture. Dudes here, if they are not getting girls through game (which rarely any of them are), are usually big time simps that take them out to overpriced restaurants. I am talking $60 for some freaking overrated Ceviche that tastes awful bro lol. Whatever complex that woman has, it has been fed and nourished well by the Miami culture.
It's the Eastern European women who get more hype than the Western European ones. Eastern European women who come to the USA often lose many of the attirubutes that make them get hype while they are in Eastern Europe. The culture is the big influencer. However, certain Eastern Euro nations are starting to mimic the West. Roosh was noticing that prior to his religious conversion when he was still fornicating and seducing.I also think that it is a good chance to bring up how overrated European women are despite the hype they get. This chick moved to NYC because she had some fashion business. Euro women who get into that fashion life are some of the biggest prudes, most disrespectful, and always covering up for some insecurity. However, rich dudes with no game will take these women who are struggling financially and desperate for their next paycheck. The cycle repeats itself.
If you do not think that Euro women are just as trashy, narcissistic, and awful as American women by now, I don't know what to tell you.
I've had a woman insist upon a coffee date when I wanted to do alcoholic drinks. This happened many years ago over OkCupid and a date never resulted. It might have happened 1-2 other times where a woman was insistent about a specific date format for a first or second date. It's rare. Most women aren't like that. I think most women are pleased when a man is at least somewhat organized about a date idea and making it a reality.Honestly don't think I ever have had that happen to me
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
kinda makes sense what she said .I once met a girl for drinks at a bar for a first date. It went well. For our second date, I suggested going for walk by the water. She gave me the "I'm not a dog" line. I told her I was no longer interested in a second date.
kinda makes sense what she said .
women usually wear hills and stuff . You can not walk a lot with those in
but you do not have to go for dinner . You can just go for drinks . Either in a bar , beach or just in the parkLook up sneating.
Women are getting chased very heavily up to age 50 and sometimes even beyond. Childless women have more market value in their 30s/40s but even many single moms in their 30s/40s are generating a lot of interest.The modern day You Go Girl Cancel Culture is going to give her an inflated ego and cause her to keep acting that way. I doubt long-term she cares about what Red Pill and Black Pill circles say as Cancel Culture feminists and simps from the left will come to her defense. TBH, I do not care if a woman makes it to 35 not married, that's her choice and marriage is not for everyone.
These days and at the rate society is going, with the pedestalization of cougars and milfs, she is going to be getting free stuff and simps going after her well into her 50s. Yeah it is sad to see but that is what it is.
The downside of the walking/hiking date (and most activity dates) is that they can only be scheduled in a narrow window of time. They can only be scheduled weekends during daylight hours and are often weather dependent. I like using activity dates when appropriate but good luck scheduling an activity date on Tuesday night at 7 PM.I’m a big proponent of the wilderness trail walk as a first date. If she says no there’s a reason - she’s not fit enough, high interest enough or her pics don’t match her currently or she simply wants to extract resources.
On a “active date” you get to see her body as clothing required for physical activity is more revealing.
If she can do a trail walk without needing an inhaler the chances of her being capable of good sex is higher.
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.
Most women I know have more than one pair of shoes.kinda makes sense what she said .
women usually wear hills and stuff . You can not walk a lot with those in
your problem is that you think like a man when it comes to womenMost women I know have more than one pair of shoes.
Must be an American thing. No wonder it's the land of the whales.The idea is to go somewhere where it is not required for a woman to walk that much
in general women hate walking
Good luck with that .I’m a big proponent of the wilderness trail walk as a first date. If she says no there’s a reason - she’s not fit enough, high interest enough or her pics don’t match her currently or she simply wants to extract resources.

I dangle the “there’s an amazing burger joint nearby” we can go there for lunch after. Or “we can jump in my hot tub” and have drinks.
In my AO this is working well because everyone purports to have an “active lifestyle”. Obviously I’m talking about OLD. SIFs won’t agree to go, NEXT!
Actually, most women are cool with the idea of going for a walk, to the beach, etc. At least that's been my experience. I suppose things may be different in a parts of the USA (where the average female weighs 327 lbs).your problem is that you think like a man when it comes to women
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
I live in Europe … it is the same thingMust be an American thing. No wonder it's the land of the whales.
She was correct. Your second date was cheap.I once met a girl for drinks for our first date. It went well. For our second date, I suggested going for a walk by the water. She gave me the "I'm not a dog" line. I told her I was no longer interested in a second date.
man , one thing is to go to the beach or for a short walk after some drinks there during sunset or a bit later … and a totally different thing to go directly for a walk somewhereActually, most women are cool with the idea of going for a walk, to the beach, etc. At least that's been my experience. I suppose things may be different in a parts of the USA (where the average female weighs 327 lbs).
only cheap people like other cheap peopleShe was correct. Your second date was cheap.
It wasn't about the money. I wanted to spend time outside because it was a nice day.She was correct. Your second date was cheap.
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.
