"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

When she doesn't answer...what do YOU do?

You need to leave a voicemail especially if its your first time calling her.

It reminds her of who you are. A lot of PEOPLE screen calls when a number they don't recognize pops up on their phone. I don't answer random numbers (it could be someone I don't want to talk to) so if they don't leave a message no call back. If they leave a message I plug that number into my phone and now know who it is when they call again.
very true, however when this particular girl gave me her number she took mine as well, so she knew who was calling.

I think this thread has potential.

How often do Women wait to call you back? Personally, I sometimes wait to call women back because I want 'give the gift of missing me.' So, it's a subtle game I might play. Perhaps Women are doing the same thing to us.

Do you really think a woman that likes you always calls immediately?
Perhaps its a game?
Do you think no call back the same day means no or little interest?
Well, that is what this thread is about:rockon:

If she has a pattern of calling back a day or two later, it's a conscious thing she does and you have to work through that.

Interesting analysis of what being sent to voicemail means.

I mean, c'mon, when do you ever find a woman to be without her cell phone? NEVER. They always know where it is, and it's always on.
Exactly, this is why I get mad when they don't answer.

Also, I feel like people don't check their voicemails much, I know I don't.

I'm going to wait until next week to call her back if she doesn't call before then, try to take back control of the situation.
 

"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.

Sometimes women are actually busy. You should be too.

yea really. there's some real bitterness against him on this thread. y not just be concerned about ourselves and stop hatin on Brad Pitt because he is successful?
Because he's not a PUA, he's a over-idolized male figure. Same with any other celebrity out there, OVER-IDOLIZED.

Where's your field reports bud? Seeing how you IDOLIZE supposedly the best person on the world, show us what YOU are made of. Follow in the footsteps right?

maybe they dont feel like talking
im not a woman and i do the same thing cuz sometimes i jus dont feel like entertaining ayone on the phone at the moment, so i wait. i even do this to my friends. it has nothing to do with interest, jus dont feel like talking.

but if the pattern of not calling continues, then it's low interest. move on

i dont idolize anyone, especially not Brad Pitt. Personally i dont like him. but wat do u gain by bein jealous of him because ur girl likes him? i dont perceive any threat in Bradd pitt. if my girl liked him (which none of them do) wat chance would they have of actually getting with him? they would have a better chance of getting hit by a car than gettin swept of their feet by him.
 

"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.

Who ever said I was jealous? He is a human out of reach of anyone I know.:rockon:

Pfft, nobody in the world outside of Jack Bauer in "24" is too busy to make a two-minute phone call. That's the weakest excuse in the world.

I think most of the time a woman is trying to test you to see if you'll call back again (and again and again and again) like a chump. Or they're weird freaks with confidence issues and freak out at the thought of calling you back. Who knows?

Imo.... Women do this 95% of the time to just have you there for attention. If she liked you, then she would simply pick up the phone.

If she does like you and was busy at the time, then she would return the call when she did have the time.

Few days go by, if she aint returned your call move on.. imo

She will be spinning other plates and at the same time she will know she is winding you up, and knows she can call upon you at anytime. This is why we should not keep getting in touch. Let the women do the chasing..

You try spinning three or more plates while working and having a social life outside of dating. Just how often are you going to to return a call from a woman who has left the message "Hey, it's me again. Are you there? Why don't you return my calls? Oh well, call me when you're not so busy..."

Yeah, I'll rush to return her call... :rolleyes:
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

Wow, all these good points with barely any flaming, I feel this is a top quality thread.:rockon:

Anyway, I also agree with you Francisco, so I decided to only leave a message if I have something REALLY important to say... or if I have something which would really make her want to call back. I actually remember one of David D's lines where he would cut out the message mid-sentence to make her call back and find out what happened.

Not calling a girl you're not interested in is one thing, but not calling someone because you're "too busy" is just a lame lie.

Even when I'm busy with work, school, and girls, I can always make time for a 5 minute call to someone I care about.

Agreed.

Let's say you are driving home from work or driving to pick up one of your other dates...I can guarantee that you can find 3 minutes to make the call while you are driving to other appointments/dates.

Quite often, to remind myself that I have other options, I will call a woman and set up a date on my way to picking up a different girl. It just puts things in perspective and gives me an excuse to get off the phone quickly.

I make just about all my calls in the car on the way to places. I have zero respect for people that can't call back. I give way more attention to women that call back and only talk for like a minute then someone who only calls back every once in awhile but talks for 20 minutes. It's the hidden meaning that counts not the conversation.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

When she calls back, do not answer. Then return the call on your time. If she doesn't answer that time, continue meeting new chicks.
