"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I had an interesting opportunity at a party half a year ago. I'm thinking to this day what I could've done differently to hook up with this girl. I constantly talked to her at the party and she's one of "whatever" down to earth quiet girls. I had trouble judging her interest level though. I acted C+F and she seemed to enjoy that. I wanted to show my interest in her romantically but I did want not to seem desperate. So I think I downplayed my interest and put myself in the friends zone. She was sleeping over as was I at the party place. We slept on adjacent couches, I knew I shoulda done something to show my interest but to this day I'm not sure how I would have done that.

I'm open to suggestions, and yes i have read the bible. I'm still unsure how to handle these party situations. I know I should've made out with her at least.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

You couldve tried it on!

Come on man its a party!

Ask her to dance, get talking to her close up (by edging into her ever so slowly while maintaining eye contact!) etc.

Its actually really unusual with me. When im talking to a girl in a club/pub/whatever i automatically move in slowly when i KNOW she has an interest in me, then before i know it im kissing her! This has worked, id say, 95% of the time for me. I gues im just good at reading signals of interest! :D

Back to your 'prob' :D - you have only yourself to blame mate, if youve read the bible and understood it then you would have tried it on.

Next time this happens - do it! :)

If I was up your ass you'd know
homie, did you make a move on her? if you didn't make a move on her, then i would say thats where you messed up for sure. You could have judged her interest level by seeing how she reacted to kino, whether she recirprocated your touch or bacame akward or uncomfertable.

Definately should have made a move, make the ho say no.

What are you doing thinking about what happend so long ago. A situation like that is not likey to come again. That is why you have to live in the present and do what you would do if you could do it all over again NOW.

Unless you know something. Huh? You holdin out. Don't be stingy with the time machine man.
 

"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.

Um, this party is not a regular party. More of a social get-together thing. Close friends and aquaintances. Can you define "making a move"? I dont know how to go from friendly talking to kissing and whatnot. From what you're suggesting kino right? In that sense I did not make any move then.

I'm pretty sure I'll be in a situation like that again. I will be at a party and I won't know how to make the home-run.
