"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

Preemptively Prude?

What's up gentlemen.

Background: There is a really hot girl that goes to my gym: tall, nice ass, beautiful face, etc. I have never approached her in the gym as she always has her headphones in and does not look like she wants to be bothered. However, last week we matched on a dating app and she starting talking to me in the gym. I asked her to get drinks and we went out last Wednesday. Date went well, good kino, and made out. I asked her to come to my place this weekend (tonight) and she accepted.

Situation: All week she has texted me and interest level seems good. However, this morning she texts me "I feel like death right now but hopefully will feel better later (fingers crossed emoji). Lady things ahaha not drinking." She inferring she isn't hung over from drinking but is on her period. That's fine. But what is the move here? Could this girl be so prude that she is stating right off that bat that she is on her period and there is no way we are f!cking tonight? I guess there is always the possibility of getting head, but to me it seems pretty forward.

I could go about this two ways. Text her back and say no worries if she is feeling sick, we can always plan for next weekend. I have 2 other plates that would probably be able to come over tonight anyways (although I want to get this girl as a plate as well). Or I could still have this girl over tonight - showing that I'm willing to wait. Could this be a sh!t test??

Thanks boys.
 

"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.

There will be other opinions, but I personally would text back "No problem. You stay in tonight and feel better. We'll make it some other time" or something similar.

In so doing I would be demonstrating that I'm unruffled about not seeing her tonight, that I'm easy-going and I can easily do without her. It also carries a light implication that I'm wise to her subtle message (about no sex) if indeed this is a subtle message. And I do think the message is there.

If she has enough interest she will make it easy to see her again. If not, then no harm no foul. You're just nipping a problem in the bud. Either way you can't lose. But the bottom line is that you've demonstrated that you're unaffected by her, which is a very good thing.

No problem. It also gives you complete control of the situation. Instead of her deciding, You have decided. That’s good for you as a man and good for her to see.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

Just let her know it's no big deal and you can reschedule for another time. Then let her come back to you. This is the key part that a lot of guys screw up...they start chasing the woman trying to make plans again. No. You let her initiate and her reschedule. If this is a real issue and she wasn't flaking she will. If not then she won't. Simple.
