"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.

What are your sticking points or which ones did you find most difficult?

Just wanted to hear back from you guys in terms of what you thought were your most difficult sticking points in the game or what your current sticking points are.

For me personally, I'd have to say that the two most difficult sticking points for me were getting over my approach anxiety and getting over my sexual anxiety.

AA is definitely one of the biggest. It's a demon that I have to fight every night that I go out. It's always there and its just as strong every night I go out. I've gotten to a point where I can manage it pretty well.

The next is probably sexual anxiety, actually pulling the trigger whilst I'm in set. Going for the kiss and physically escalating, breaking through this barrier was tough, but i will say that once I did break through it, it wasn't that difficult on recurring times.

"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.

I'm not sure if you are talking about sarging or women general.

I don't go sarging so I'll talk about my experiences with women in general. I have two major problems.

Building attraction and knowing when to close/seeing the signs.

I'm just not very good at attracting women at this point in my life. Most of the girls I meet end up thinking of me as just a friend. I've been friendzoned too many times. I'm just not doing the things necessary to turn women on.

In the rare event that I do get a woman interested I don't know when to actually make a move, I might not see the signs or I'm just too scared. Also for a couple of girls I gave them a late hit. You know in football where the quarterback throws the ball and some guy from the defense comes charging at him and tackles the QB long after the ball is gone. That's basically me. It would have been fine if I made the move during the correct opportunity but doing it too late is simply a penalty.

Perhaps the reason you are unable to build attraction is *because* you aren't making any progressive moves...

LOL Rabbit cotton? That's definitely a new one.

But yeah, I'm not an ass grabber. Going with the rabbit theme, I feel like an little rabbit that wants to get a tigress.

I'm not hard on the outside and certainly not in the inside either.

Well summer school starts next week and it's a new semester to blow more chances with girls...
 

"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.

Cry more. You're a bunny and she's a tiger?

And yeah i used to find approaching really difficult, now i'm just starting to improve kino/escalating, so basically same as you kevin...i'm 18 and a virgin but i'm preeetty confident i'll lose it this year, i'm not sure if more sticking points will arise.

haha...u guys make me laugh...maxtro how the hell did you get to being a master don juan...lolz

i feel it's not about attraction or any single part, it's about moving the game forward calibrating all the way. Calibration is one of the things that experience will teach you and you got to analyse back all the time.

approaching if you do it some times, you will see it's quite easy after all...just go and say hi but that hi should be calibrated enough to get her interested!

Hey I didn't choose my rank. I would have picked something more....appropriate.

I didn't really mean it as a complaint.

It's just that I still find women intimidating. I wasn't the one to come up with comparing me to a rabbit. But I think it works for now.

Once I got over my "hump" I have to say the hardest part for me was (and still is) endgame. I can create attraction, open, joke around, and all that... But I'm still weak when it comes to sealing the deal. Getting better though, slowly and surely...
 

"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.

Hardest part for me is going in for the first kiss, but after that its clear sailing.

@maxtro, don't worry bro...see i don't care what game you are following but remember, the very first step of these all: focus on what you want. whenever you see a girl, just imagine her naked, try to get inside her, understand her, how she's feeling, soak her energy up, you got me? All this intimidation will go away!

sometimes, in this area of psychology we don't even know if we are doing right... if you are not getting results, then you are not doing the right things. change your game. what you think is attraction might not actually be so.

I can't seem to close to save my life. I am already OK at creating interest and attraction but I just can't ask for a number...I am extremely afraid of rejection :(

I'm have trouble pulling the trigger sometimes going in for the kiss. Sometimes i just do it with no problem. I've gone in for the kiss once and was rejected, and it wasn't a big deal at all, so i know it's not rejection.

How did you get over this?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Legit advice, man. I've often thought about that myself. The thing is I'm definitely getting results but I feel like I could be getting a bit more... Maybe my style's only working for certain situations or something, I dunno, but it's possible that what needs to be changed is something way before the endgame (depending on the situation.) Definitely something I'll look at.

But most of the time, the tripping point is just that I know what to do and I can visualize it, I just don't follow through. It's like approach anxiety except at the crucial part of the night
