some bs about being stressed she said sorry. how should I respond?
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.
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.
This the same chick who had all sorts of family problems,with a brother or some other relative in jail,who you kept going on and on and on about?some bs about being stressed she said sorry. how should I respond?
First off, there is nothing in that text except bread crumbs but I am sure you are just dying to dive right back in to convo with her. What is there to respond to? So she started fvcking a new guy, he pumped and dumped her so she is coming back to you for a mental stimulation to get her confidence back. Nothing more.some bs about being stressed she said sorry. how should I respond?
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.
You're crazy naive. She was definitely seeing another dude. Stop making excuses for some c*nt that ghosted you. You really dont get it.she texted me last night. saying she has have had terrible family issues and I dont know how to open up I get anxiety when someone gets close to me. this was last night I still havent responded. i know yall are gonna think I'm being nieve but there isnt another dude in the picture trust me on this. she just is an insecure immature girl who cannot be upfront about anything when it comes to saying no. I dont think I will say anything for a few days... I just dont wanna go down that road with her again as you can see by my beta posts about her. I gotta soft spot for her and I cant get in the right frame of mind when kn around her to act like a suave player
And you know this how?dude trust me there is no dude in the picture like that. I know it sounds dumb but there isnt any dude in the picture right now

You're right it does sound stupid. Given you are sucked into this ghosting bish like a terd going down a drain its probably best for you to delete and block her number. You cant see the forest through the trees on this one.no she didnt tell me that. but I know her roommate. I know it sounds stupid but no dude is in the picture right now
Do you realize that woman cover for each other?no she didnt tell me that. but I know her roommate. I know it sounds stupid but no dude is in the picture right now
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.
no she didnt tell me that. but I know her roommate. I know it sounds stupid but no dude is in the picture right now
I'm not close but my friend knows the roommate and the other day I gotta little scoop on it why would she even hide being with another dude? if I found out she was with another dude it would be better then being ghosted and I would be over it.
whatever it is what is I'm not gon a harp on this anymore I'm wasting my time. I just need to find another woman who doesnt pull little childish sh!t like this. I'd rather her be like look this isbt gonna work out then be sitting here with my thumb up my ass wondering.
To avoid any confrontation. Just look how crazy some guys go after being rejected.why would she even hide being with another dude?.
Yes you did. You posted the text messages. Double texting, telling her all about your day, out of the blue telling her about having sex with your ex gf on a boat....total creeper dude. And she begged you to go on the vacation? Not hardly. She ghosted you and you whined on that thread about how she had the nerve to ghost you and left you holding the bag on that vacation.lol I never blew her phone up or did anything to creep her out. I've seen her scared to walk Infront of a hairsalon to a appointment she accidentally missed because she woke up late shes just terrible with confrontation. and I was going on the vacay regardless and she was begging to go....
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.
