You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
If I were to ever lie about my age I would claim to be older than I actually am. I'm 39 and will turn 40 in December.Originally posted by Fatality
you know you are older than 39...

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.
Hey...sorry I disappeared on you. I had some seriously major sh*t going down here at home. My ex husband assaulted our 14 year old son. My boy wanted to try to live with his father, so I let him. Wasn't even a year and I get a phone call from the state police that my ex is in jail for domestic assault against my kid. I've had court out the ying yang...criminal case, restraining order, emergency change of custody, updating of divorce agreement, meetings like crazy, new job, carting 3 teenagers to their jobs...court case with my rental agent over their psycho employee (he tried to run me over with his snow plow and threatened to shoot my neighbor's dog). It's been keeping me busy. I don't have time to admin the other site anymore.Originally posted by ~ªêQµïTª$~

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.
Okay...I Just made a post in Announcements explaining what's been going on.Originally posted by ~ªêQµïTª$~

I remember very vividly you saying you were late 40's and often get mistaken for 30 years old.Originally posted by Wyldfire

No...I said I was late 30's and get mistaken for being in my late 20's. Your memory is about as long as a little girl's penis.Originally posted by Fatality

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

wow you look younger then you are.Originally posted by Wyldfire
You are the only person who has ever claimed that I look over 10 years older than my actual age. Most people insist that I look 10 years younger than my age....and not just "horny guys". One guy I was with used to get biotched at by his friends for "robbing the cradle" by being with me. They thought he was significantly older than I was. I was actually older than he was.
