"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Pulling a disappearing act before you set up the first date=bad idea.

Most women will take this as sign of you not being really attracted to her or as a game.

Some will simply ignore you the next time you see her after a few days without asking her out.

Example:You meet a girl on monday.Get the number on wed. but don't call or see her again till the tuesday after that?

There's a good chance of her giving you the cold shoulder especially if she has another suitor or a boyfreind on the low.You're just giving her time to qualify and rate you against other men and these are men she probably already went out with,so there's history there.

You're better off waiting no more than 2 days before you set up a date.

Let's stop underestimating a woman's emotional needs,SS.
 

"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.

There are no rules.

If the woman is interested, she is interested.

Rationalizing why a woman does or does not call back, has nothing to do with how long you wait, but rather her initial thoughts towards you.

If she really dug you, she'd find a way to call back.

I'm not saying that.You guys don't read thread posts all the way through.

I'm saying that if you meet Becky and you leave with the number BUT you don't call her to set up a date within in a few days,chances are by the next time you see her she's gonna be in sour mood.

And you have to anylyze what women want cuz they are the ones that chose to be with you.You can't just kept nexting them cuz there might be something wrong in your game.

You can next a whole year away realsitcally speaking and not find one girl that can meet your 'standards'(demands,really).

You have to adjust enough to be the man women want and are attracted to get laid and have women after you.

Dude, what are you talking about?

You mentioned that you SHOULDN'T wait more than 2 days to call. That is what I was replying to in your post. Now you are going off about analyzing what women want.

I don't care what women want. I call them when I feel compelled to, and either they are interested and call back, or they are not interested in call back. If I am not in the mood/condition to call her and ask for a date, I wait til I am. I don't care what their feelings are about, or if they are 'sour' about it. I can't guess their moods and I refuse to think that much about a woman I briefly met.

Who said anything about nexting, by the way?

This whole, 'shoud I wait this long, or that long' deabte is tiresome. You call when you want to. You are not obligated to call her at all, even.

Obviously, calling while she can remember how great you are is ideal.

My experience bck up what Realnezz is saying.

Particularly for guys whose physical game is their strong suit. Get back with her before the vibe wears off too much. Strike when the iron is hot.
 

"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.

agreed, yeah you can try and be the macho guy and say "I call whenever I feel like it"

but odds are, if you wait more than 2 days, good luck with all the work that'll go into creating that good vibe again.
