She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
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.
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.
Man, you are just about the coolest dude in the world. Pure honesty and pure sexuality, and you get em all.Nino-Tk said:Well sometime last week she told me that she'd be cool with dating but only if I left all my girls, I refused. She walked away. Today, however, she told me that she was going to go ahead and just date but her friends refused profusely because they have seen hanging out with a girl too often so to her it just added fuel to me being a player. So she asked me straight up today if I had a Gf, I admitted to having several and then she kept quiet, after a while, she told me that we should be FWB, it seems good to me but I don't know gents, I think shes got feelings for real...anyway, I told her that I will be spending breaktime with her tomorrow,I'll see what will go down.
The problem is, women are emotional creatures. When they get with a guy, they have emotions about it, and if he's with other girls, they feel jealousy and other painful emotions.beacause it is not like I LIE to these women, I tell them the truth...then again..ah fvck it, someone shed light please.
Thats GENIUS. Dude youre awesome. You always have a new close to share.Nino-Tk said:So then I thought of Tshpenova's " On Da Spot" theory where he will always try to have sex with a women anywhere, anytime so that even when he doesn't lay her, the girl can look forward to experiencing it, because of the brash sexuality! So we are now hot and I pull her skirt up and squeezed those thighs, She told me to slow down " No, not here" But I'm a Dj, its not what they say, its how they act and she sure as hell wasn't moving it away, so then I just brushed up on her Gina, God, I swear I witnessed a sexual beast! But like a Sweet dream being abrubtly interrupted, we heard the hooter of of our buses, we had to go. I was hot, so was she.
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
Man you should come to the townships, where I reside, there are alot of guys who are not in Universities bra, I don't think having bad marks will get one into University just because that someone is black. And yeah you are right, its not that hard but I can get obsessive quite easily, so this time around I wnat it to be my school work, I'll try and strike the right balance though.DanZy said:Dude I don't mean to be rude or cause offense, but you're black and in this country that means near-guaranteed university entrance. ****, as a white guy I have the toughest time getting in, especially with the course I want to take. Balancing girls and grades isn't easy but it's not hard either.

Bra, now that I think about it, yeah I shouldn't have agreed , I should've thought of that line! Oh well I guess we never stop learning about the game huh? Nice one though thanksLearningSlowly said:You're right that you need to focus yourself on school. Your future is important. You know how to get girls, make sure you take that skill to the university level.
But as far as telling this girl you would be an exclusive... Wrong move. Maybe you could have said "I'll be your boyfriend for today, and we'll see how it goes. Come on, lets go this way." then started walking and looking for a private location where you could have sex.
I wouldn't have thought of it either, but next time a girl wants you to be committed, and I'm sure someone will, you might remember it.
Yea bro I spent last week in Alex, ****s depressing. I know guys who've come from absolute poverty and made something of their lives from sheer hard work. The government has failed our nation completely, it's appalling. Without COSATU, we'd have a single party state, they're the only ones who have any pull with the ANC.

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.
