"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Some of you might remember the beginning of this story. Thanks to you, it looks like I might have given myself the option of pursuing. So help me figure this out guys!

In a nutshell -

Went on two dates with a girl. Made out both times. Made plans for a third date for a week later.

Texted back and forth, played Words with Friends. Then, a day before the third date, she flakes by saying her brother had a minor emergency and was going to stay with her all Thanksgiving. OK.

So next week I call about a date - tell her I want to see her before my Vegas trip. She asks when I leave (Friday). Then (conveniently?) says she has work events on Tues, Wed and Thurs.

I respond saying she has an amazingly busy schedule.

NO CONTACT BEGINS Tuesday of last week.

So yesterday (Monday) I get a random text from her "Are you back from Vegas?"

I have NOT responded yet. How do I bang this girl?

Thanks
 

"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.

Just be careful not to over-analyze all of this to death. If I were you, here's what I'd do:

"Yea, I'm free X, Y, Z this week. Let's get together."

Give her a few options for the week. You're also giving yourself a hidden deadline. If she can't make it work this week, she's not interested enough. I talked about dealing with high interest level only before. That's not to say you won't be able to eventually bang her, but you'll be wasting a LOT of time before that happens.

Also, don't ask 'how do I bang this girl'. It's not something you can accomplish 100% of the time if you do A, B, and C. But yea, do the above and see how she responds. If she can't make it happen or flakes or cancels, move on.

Thanks Muscleman. If I go with that plan, when should I text her, given that she texted me last night at 7pm?

Ok done. I said this "Yes. Had a blast. I'm free Thurs and Saturday this week. Let's get together."

You guys haven't steered me wrong yet. Play by play to come.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Her reply "I've got a friend in from out of town. This seems impossible!"

WTF - why does she even text then?

Should I go back to No contact? Or say something to call her out?

"Calling her out" never works.

Keeping quiet -- moving on for your own sake in this case, to see if she'll reach out in other cases -- always works.

As guys we need to stop always trying to "make things happen." A girl will rarely directly say no but take a hint at this point. As others have said, she's just not interested.

I also wouldn't have immediately gone for trying for another meetup. Instead I would have sent some high value statement about Vegas.

If I piqued her interest, she'd respond. If not, no ground lost.

Probably doesn't matter in this case, though!
 

"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.

As suspected, low interest. Save yourself some time being pissed off and forget about her.

No need to respond.

The only way I'd let a girl see me after that (and a lot of guys won't even be this lenient) is if she told me 'hey I'm free tonight or tomorrow, want to get together?' Anything short of that, don't bother responding.

What muscleman said + read the link he posted earlier.

A good quote I read the other day "have you guys forgotten what it's like when a girl is actually interested in you?".

E.g. Assuming friend from out of town is a female, you'd be invited over there to be shown off, just saying.

Go completely AFC on this girl imo. That way you blow it up big time and psychologically, it will be a big ego boost because you're actually in control of the AFC. To the point that it's absurd. That would turn things over in your head.

Do it.

Good Thread with the play by play.

I always move on if the counter offer is not made.

This is awesome, OP!
How good does it feel to be unplugged and enlightened? Now you're able to recognise low-interest/low-value women and you quickly, coldly and efficiently cull them from the herd.
Throw that smoke bomb, my friend, and disappear....she's proven herself unworthy of you and rather then being bad, it's actually good.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Awesome work guys. Thanks again. I'm about to ask another girl out on the second date.

Quick poll - do you text or call girls to ask out. I'm seeing more and more surprised at the call.
