"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I've been casually dating different women for the past several months. I have noticed a common theme among all of them. Usually after the first time they come over and any sort of physical intimacy happens, they always like to ask me "what are you thinking?" Every single woman has asked me this. From my standpoint, this is usually on date 3 or 4 and way too early for me to discuss exclusivity, etc. Do you guys have a decent way of handling this question?
 

"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.

My guess, they think you’re too quiet, talk more.
Women like to talk, if you don’t, they Will initiate verbal if you don’t make a move…
They want to know your intentions by date 3 or 4 …

But in between meeting girls and they text me and ****. Idk wtf to talk about
When you don’t know what to say, the tried and true go to convo technique with women is getting them talking about themselves.
They think you’re getting to know them.

Have starter phrases like, and fill in the blanks…
What was your best …….
What do you do when ……..
What was was your most memorable…….
etc.
Leading questions about how she felt or is feeling.
Follow up questions like, How did you feel about that?
Why?
Get and keep her talking with your expertly timed questions and try not to get bored in the process…

Yeah but that only lasts so long before you run out of material
 

"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.

Al Bundy would say "If I wanted you to know, what I'm thinking, I would say it and not think it."
But spare you this one till later, when she says something dumb ;)

Hi Cavalier,
This is a sad reflection on your social skills,I would echo the thoughts of builtx49....If you would be the Laughing Cavalier read carefully it is great advice!
 

"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.

They want you to be honest with them so that they can game you better.
