Senior Don Juan
She's done something you haven't...She's moved on!
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 paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
Those two sentences pinpoint the crux of your problem.Originally posted by Thugo
So fast forward 5 years. Still think about her wondering what she's up to.
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.
Remember this sentence, don't ever do this again, if you still have feelings for her (because you obviously do).Originally posted by Thugo
So we ended the convo, I felt like crap like the wound reopened.
Why do you need to mail?So I waited a couple months and emailed her asking if she just wants to get coffee and just catch up on old times and be friends. I'm very sure she got it.
She didn't even reply. I mean she could have at least said NO.
So I wated another month and emailed one last time, and again, no reply.
What does a no reply mean in this very bizarre situation? She might still want me, or she doesn't give a rats azz about me? [/B]

Think she threw it all out?

Anyway, she probably is a lousy wife. She rarely gave head and wasn't good at it. Wasn't that great in the sack. She just acted like a fairy so I'd marry her.
I can't imagine what kind of wife she would be. Probably a controlling b!tch from hell. Cause we all know how women change once you wed them.
Guy probably hasnt gotten head in 5 years.
