What im looking for is advice on how i can detach her from him?...Iceberg said:
"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.
Tough situation guys...

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
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.

By walking away. That will either make her realize what she is losing in you and she will come running, or if she stays with the guy, will make you realize where her priorities lay...IE with him.Ken785 said:
Either way you win. This staying with the girl while she's with him just lets her have her ****cake and eat it too.

I think she thinks the benefits of her staying with him and the "partnership, and his helping her " is too good to her right now...
Should i just keep hitting it until this guy cant stand it anymore and leaves? (if ever he will)

No. Not as long as you want her to leave the guy...IE have feelings for her. Only hurting yourself. Plenty of single girls with no baggage out there.Ken785 said:

Here's what you do. Take her to Las Vegas and pay all the expenses. Get really drunk and stumble into one of those wedding chapels. Say, "Let's get married." Like it's a joke and it would be funny.
When you both sober up, tell her you're so happy to have her as your lawful wedded wife.
Voila!
She's yours and only yours. :rockon:
Cheers!

I'll admit that i am attached. I think besides the fact that shes sleeping with us both, she says she doesnt want to hurt either of us....besides that...shes hard to find. She cooks, cleans, is caring, smart, ambitious and family oriented...overall great girl if you minus the situation. I want her for myself, yes.Danger said:
I refuse to just walk away and "let him have her"...id rather keep fvcking her and make his life miserable and not left him have peace.
Get a grip Ken..while u still can. This girl is crazy. The other guy is a big time loser. Probably a nice guy..but he got it bad. This girl is ruining his life. Can this guy even look himself in the mirror and call himself a man? It is just so depressing man. You don't want that to be you. Deal with the pain and let her go.
Knocking on a womans door after a man just finished shafting her and he is lying naked next to her has got to be one of the most humiliating undignifiying experiences in life for a man.
This guy really doesn't have anything over you. You are at the point where u can walk a away. Just do it.
I know this guy seems like a real chump. But the reality of the situation is that this could turn dangerous at any moment.

Yep this is exactly the type of situation you read about, (in fact it just happened not long ago-was all over the news) where a guy goes nutso and does a murder suicide. Taking out his girl and anyone she has slept with.Delly2000 said:

This thread is a perfect example of why guys need to be on top of their game and spin plates, if this chick was high quality she wouldn't feel forced to settle with someone she wouldn't want too but more importantly OP would walk away and have self-respect. Someone needs to link Pook's "You are the prize" thread here
oh and OP is far from Alpha, if he was he'd walk away

^Second the motion. NOW is the time to "quit while you are ahead.". Cash out your chips and leave the casino.cordoncordon said:
A "beta" that is pushed to brink is more dangerous than an "alpha."
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
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.

I get the feeling this is gonna end badly. Hope I don't see this story on Dateline.

Huh?
Man.................... No offense but you're a few fries short of a Happy Meal.
This guy is not what's holding back the greatest romance since Romeo & Juliet. She's playing two AFCs and you think he's the biggest obstacle? Time for a reality check.
It's her!
Obviously, you're determined to be a lamb being led to slaughter. Don't insult us by making your fellow chump the root and focus of all your problems.
Personally, I think you're beyond help. Still, good luck in your venture. You'll need it.

Maybe youre right, I think the reason for my resentment towards him is i think we would have been together had he not started crying when she met me. Thats where i place the blame, but i guess i resent her too...the further this goes on...the more of a piece of meat she is to me, maybe its because shes so nice to me and does stuff for me like a GF, so im attached.romangod said:
Maybe its the pvssy or her 34 Ds....who knows, im addicted.

Ok guys...i told her via text...I told her i needed "that conversation with her", face to face...she thought i was texting her to tell her i want a relationship and to choose. She texted "Im sorry, im not ready to make a choice". Then i hit her with "Im walking away, no need to respond. Take care"
Something to that effect.
Something to that effect.
"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.

The only way this behavior would be acceptable is if this girl is way hot. Then I could see putting up with all the bull****. But if she's less than an 8, then you sir, are a chump.

I have high stands as far as looks...believe me..she is...why do you think ive been messing with her for a year?Serialized3 said:
Why do you think the other chump is head over heals for her and didnt leave when he caught us in bed??
Personally, I don't agree with this. Because a girl is hot is no reason to give up your dignity and self-respect.Serialized3 said:
Allowing yourself to become a chump because a girl is an 8 or better goes against everything. Putting her on a pedestal and having "oneitis" is not healthy no matter how hot she is. IMHO

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
