"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.

Well today I successfully got 2 number closes and I'm wondering when do you guys usually call your numbers? I was planning on just calling them tonight, but I didn't know.
 

"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 usually say 2 -3 days. Some people say it depends on the vibe you got. I've called a number the next day and set up a date for 2 days later and it worked.

rule of thumb, 2-3 days.

there are alot of variables.

If you got a good vibe/seem geniunely interested in hanging out/asked when you were going to hang out, within a day.

otherwise, i'd wait 2 or 3, and yes, you should be a busy man, this should come through in your conversations and day 2 planning.

Good hunting.

Me and you are usually on the same page Aragon :up:
 

"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.

I say choose a period of time and stick with it. Don't second guess yourself if she doesn't answer or reply to a text message, could be any number of reasons.

One girl I met last weekend asked for my number so I gave it to her and she gave me mine, I text her after about 4 hours completely smashed out of my face. We went back and forth like this for an hour or so. Haven't heard from her since.

In hindsight, saying her messages were crap might have been a bad idea.

i've called girls that gave me their numbers from online dating sites after 2,3 maybe 4 weeks, and they didn'd seem very offended! The only way you could act LIKE A PUSS is calling too early! For me is MINIMUM 5 days! Of course it depends how you got her number!

My record is a year. I like to leave it awhile, just to see how much impact I made on her. I only recently texted a chick I met about 8 months ago aswell, she said it took her about 10 minutes to remember me, better than not at all I guess.

I'm pretty much now sold on the idea you can call a chick whenever you want as long as she has fond memories of your initial meet.
