"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.

ok, i've heard alot of dudes preach the 3 day rule, but that is jus BS. it doesnt raise chicks interest level at all. i've found it jus gets them impatient and they move on wit there lives by then. so i usually wait about a day. but really i dont think it matters how long u wait to call a chick, jus how interesting your are and how interested u get her. wat u guys think?
 

"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.

Phone calls only potentially decrease attraction they do nothing to increase it.

Exactly. Make sure you use the phone to setup dates and get caught up, don’t use it to develop rapport.

3 day rule is total crap by way of empirical testing. The very idea behind the 3day rule is insecurity... "She will think I am desperate". That's really paranoid. Chances are guys who think like that really are desperate in the first place. IMO the way to not seem desperate is to not be desperate in the first place.

The other aspect of it... "if she's not interested enough to remember me after 3days, why bother?". That's actually a better line of reasoning for Internet hypothesis, however, empirically it's total crap. Girl's who considered flaking but decided not to based on a goodnight phone call often end up LTRs.

Sinn has a guide to how he does phone game that you can find on mystery's forum, and Juggler has his phone ideas (probably in his ASF archeive). We need to update the bible in this respect.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

I usually go by a 2-day rule if the Interest level from our initial meeting is really high. Two days meaning the day after the next day from the day you met.

It's plan and simple,CALL WHEN YOU WANT! If they are interested enough they want you to call.

blinkwatt,

I think you have given poor advice. If every guy here (with a large majority of them being AFCs) called when they WANTED, they'd call her 5 minutes after they got the number. These rules, while they can be broken by an experienced DJ, are there to help AFCs break bad habits.
