WTF this is after her flirting with me and stuff.hey! i have been having a lot of fun hangin out with you too. But i think you should know that im not looking for a relationship. i dont want to lead you on.
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.

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.
She is not interested. If she were, she wouldn't have said this. Basically she flirted with you because she is an attention wh*re.Paintballguy said:WTF this is after her flirting with me and stuff.
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.
ClassAct said:I don't necessarily agree. It depends on the context in which it was brought up. If it was at a high point of your interaction with her, she may have been testing you, in which case it matters much more how you responded. In that situation, I would have said something that questioned why she brought it up. I would have turned the tables and simply asked why she even brought the subject up.
On the other hand, if it occured at some point in which you were pursuing her, such as asking for a date, I would assume low interest and take a few steps back untill it's her that's pursuing you.
I just really dont want a commitment at all right now and i didnt know what you were thinking so i just wanted to tell you where i was coming from before things got complicated.
I have no idea... I kissed her two times. Usually girls dont keep hanging out with you and let you kiss them if they dont like you.Kings_royalty said:I just really dont want a commitment at all right now and i didnt know what you were thinking so i just wanted to tell you where i was coming from before things got complicated.
It's possible that things were going along fine but something happened that turned her off. Was it something that you did? Possibly.
My response would have been...
'Hey, hey...hold on a second. Who said anything about dating, much less a commitment; I was just having some fun girl, you need to relax'.
i really just want to be single i was in a serious relationship that didnt end the best and i just want a break from that and to be able to do what i want and not hurt someone else in the process. i think your an awesome guy its just not good timing and thats not fair to you.
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.

I think you are right.... after she said thisKings_royalty said:It doesn’t matter if she likes you or not bro (she was obviously into you); it's the comment that needs to be addressed. How you react to those types of ‘tests’ will define your relationship with her.
Her comment was an opportunity in disguise, an opportunity for you to set the frame and position yourself as the lead.
Personally, I LOVE those types of comments from women, they are lots of fun.![]()
I replied with "well it doesnt mean we still can't hangout and have fun"i really just want to be single i was in a serious relationship that didnt end the best and i just want a break from that and to be able to do what i want and not hurt someone else in the process. i think your an awesome guy its just not good timing and thats not fair to you.
Hit the nail on the head.. What she said was nothing to have a man period over.. It was a b*tch test pure and simple..A common one at that, and it wouldve been possible to pass it in my opinionKings_royalty said:I just really dont want a commitment at all right now and i didnt know what you were thinking so i just wanted to tell you where i was coming from before things got complicated.

and I think I have passed it honestly... Here are the emails.anointed said:Hit the nail on the head.. What she said was nothing to have a man period over.. It was a b*tch test pure and simple..A common one at that, and it wouldve been possible to pass it in my opinion
What she's really thinking, "I'm kinda attracted to you, but I think you're starting to wuss out on me here. Let's see what happens if I toss some gas on the fire. A real man won't flinch, but a wuss will run like a little red headed girl."hey! i have been having a lot of fun hangin out with you too. But i think you should know that im not looking for a relationship. i dont want to lead you on.
What she really meant to say was this "I don't want to look bad by telling you I'm not attracted to you, so I'm going to lie to you to make you feel better about the entire situation. If you still want to be an emotional tampon for me to cry to when my girlfriends are all busy then that's great. But... we need to make this perfectly clear, no part of you is ever coming anywhere near my v@gina... EVER!"HB: i really just want to be single i was in a serious relationship that didnt end the best and i just want a break from that and to be able to do what i want and not hurt someone else in the process. i think your an awesome guy its just not good timing and thats not fair to you.
