"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Ok me and this girl hit it off too make long story short she gave me her number and I decide too call her the next day,so I call the 1st time and nobody picks up and then I wait a hour later too call her back the 2nd time,ok I call her nobody picks up again and I didnt leave a message.Do you guys think I should call her a 3rd time or just move on because she might be playing games.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Did you leave a message either time?

How should she know it is you? Even if she does, you need to always leave a message and just wait for her response.

Don't keep calling, but if you're gonna call, always leave a message.

You leave a message and wait for her response. You get one more phone call, and LEAVE A MESSAGE. If she doesn't call you back, move on.

I usually place call 2 a few days after call 1, and call 3 a week after call 2. But most girls never pick up anyway and I don't put much importance on this, it's the way things work. There's a probably a better way to do this but not caring seems to work fine - eventually some of them do pick up.

Yeah, leaving a message is the right idea. If you don't leave a message most people won't reply at all. If you do leave a message and she doesn't call back then she's probably not interested. If she doesn't call you back you could call again a day or two later. That usually doesn't get results, but sometimes it does. I would say waiting a couple of days is worth a shot, but it chances are against it yielding results.

This was a big problem for me, and I figured out a solution that works for me:

I try to go on an instant-date with them so that they invest more time/emotional energy into me, so I'm not that random dude that calls them after getting her number a few days ago. Girls give out their numbers like free candy.
 

"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.

Don't call the very next day, wait 1-3 days so you don't come off needy, desperate, and look like a no-lifer. Do NOT call a third time unless you had some kind of caller block on for the first two calls.

if she's not picking up and not calling you back she probably doesn't like you..


just call her with another number or private hopefully she'll pick that up.

yea waiting for more and more days spells disaster too. you can try blitzing her phone (calling it multiple times at once) ... but another negative thing is she might have a lot of resistance and use tactics to scare you off.
