"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.

I met this girl through one of my friends and managed to get her number. we've been texting most days for the past week and been meeting a couple times aswell.

here's the thing... she hints for me to either see her on her break at work which i have done twice but whenever she asks me or i ask her at night to hang out shes always got some1 else with her like a friend or whatever? one night we had a good time so i text her asking to arrange something for tomorrow night just us 2. she replied ' my ex has just text me and he's comin round to sort a few things out bla bla' . she lives on her own so wether its bils or the relationship itself i dont know? i replied with ' oh ok thats fine no worries' . she then tried to draw me in by replying with ' aww i am so confused'.

its been a couple days since he was ment to come round and weve meet a couple more times. she knows i like her and i think she likes me but she told me she just wants to get things sorted out with him first? i dont know who finished with who but am trying not to get involed or listen to her stories.

ive tried going cold n go NC but she stills texts me first and quite a few times. she will flirt etc, and last night she asked me round for drinks and then head uptown. so i brought some friends then we had a good night n went up town then ended up stayin at hers but again her friend was there so 3 of us slept in the same bed so nothing happened. we still havent kissed or anything? she said last night ' u can come round n stay but no kissing yet or sex' haha jokingly.

i just dont get why shes even texting/meeting me just now? certainly dont wana get friend zoned either. so what should i do now then? i wouldnt mind makin this work as shes a really nice girl and gorgeous. she keeps tellin me she likes me to and wouldnt meet me if she didnt? also heard shes been saying to my friends am really good looking and stuff.

is it possible shes still got feelings for the ex and hes furking her around n pullin th strings? what should i do now?

thanks
 

"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.

Bro, her ex is coming by to pound the sh!t out of her while you sit there and be her texting buddy. Maybe you could ask her to text a play by play to you...don't want to be friendzoned??? Dude, you are already there, wake up! Probably because you didn't try anything when you were around her.

Remember something: Women will forgive you for acting like a man and going for it a lot sooner than they will forgive you for being a scared little boy.

The only thing she isn't confused about is you. Enjoy the friendzone/text buddy status while other dudes are pounding her senseless...

Find someone else and don't make the same mistake again...

No more keyboard jockeying . Action is the place.
First things have ... have you made a move to kiss her ?! If not then you sir are pretty much going to be friendzoned if your not already. You guys text every day, meet up, she knows she has you and your no longer a challenge to her anymore ..... sad but true . Plus her ex is still in the picture, thats a huge red flag id leave her because she still feels something for him. Also just because she texts you while your attempting to NC doesnt mean you have to respond... your missing the point of NC. NO CONTACT.

Anyway, its quite possible she wants you as an orbiter but she could already see you as a friend. The way I would play it is I would go do my own thing and NC her (DONT ANSWER HER DAMN IT ) and see how much she realy misses you. Then after that , in a week or two, call her up ... go on a date, MAKE A MOVE (IMPORTANT ) and if she turns away from a kiss you have your answer on what to do .. hopefully its obvious.

Good luck .

EDIT - yeah marmel is right, damn you for posting a second before me lol

Yes yes yes you reocgnized your mistake . Never trust a woman words trust her ACTIONS! Embed that in your brain.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Mate, she was testing you. She wanted to know how committed you were with your plan, and obviously you weren't that committed, so now her ex banged her instead of you. This was actually the moment you missed.


her friend was there so 3 of us slept in the same bed so nothing happened. we still havent kissed or anything? she said last night ' u can come round n stay but no kissing yet or sex' haha jokingly.

You were already friendzoned here.

The only thing you could've done to show your committed was to counter offer with a new date. That shows your committed ness. But who cares she's your friend now .

Tell her to tell her ex to cancel his plan. Come up with something funny to lighten up the mood. She brought up her ex to see how you respond, and the only correct way to respond isn't to get fazed and have a witty comeback -- even though your blood is probably boiling at this time.
It depends on your rapport with her. Tell her to tell him that her dog was having diarrhea tomorrow so he shouldn't come. Something comical but also gets the point across.
