"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I hate it when I use a witty line, and the girl is completely oblivious. For example, today when this girl was walking past me hella fast like she was speed walking, said, "Whoa, slow down there, you're going to cause an accident!" And she goes, "Why would I cause an accident?"
DURR U ****ING DUMB *****.

P.S. This is just one of my *****y posts, so...respond with more *****iness.
 

"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.

Maybe she thought you were a complete dweeb. :crackup:

If she was interested, she would have laughed no matter what. :woo:

I was joking around.

But that C and F line isn't very good. You should have been like, "I bet I can beat you in a race."

He makes a good point.

However, she was in a rush and people who are rushing are rarely in the right frame of mind to get a joke of any kind.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Do they put that kinda effort in? NO.
So I'm assuming you just sit back and wait for everyone woman to approach you?

I know what you mean though in general. Some girls have low IQ's and dont realize things quickly. Nothing is worse than a stupid girl that doesnt get ur jokes. At least you didnt have to explain yourself to her. Sometimes they dont get the joke and want it explained 10 times. So things could have gotten worse.

Personally i would have started walking really fast right next to her, trying to go the same speed...when she looks over at me i would say something like im not letting you win this race.

it's called make up and taking FOREVER to get ready:rolleyes:
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

You could just start walking really fast next to her for a few seconds and say "Man, I love this powerwalking stuff. Gets the blood moving real good. Just makes you feel ALIVE, know what I'm saying?"
