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

You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
The Gambler-Kenny Rogers

There's a lot of great advice on this website about how to get women but knowing when to leave them is without a doubt more important. When she cheats, runs back to her ex, or says she wants to focus on her "career," those are all obvious. But what about the things that are less so? Excessive high maintenance, low interest level, etc.

Any and all advice on when to cut and run is appreciated.
 

"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.

To piggy back, when the red flags are too hard to ignore and it's no longer fun to be in their presence.

Thank you Samwild I guess that's what I was asking for was red flags. However, there's already a million other threads on them so I'm not going to bother asking for them.

This is by far the most important part of dating. My big one is inconsistant behavior. Once you smell a rat you need to bounce and not stick around for the invevitable pounce.
 

"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.

Most obvious signs include behavioural changes, less affection towards you and hanging out with new people without including you. Note that she may continue to keep fvcking you inspite of her lowering interest. Theres no real correlation there.

At the end of the day, you need to do it when your gut tells you to. Most of us tend to be in denial when we see obvious red flags, but your gut knows when the time is right.

A very common sign: to talk on the phone you need to do the calling rather than her doing the calling, and when you do talk she is hurrying to end the conversation and hang up.

runs back to her ex
Im curious as what one would define as running back to her ex. What if she has a drink with her ex, and says that they are merely friends/they will never get back together?

Haha, if she's associating with her exes and especially having drinks with them it means she doesn't like you.

If you ever sense the warning signs that a girl is losing interest and soon to dump you, you must pre-emptively dump her before she has a chance to dump you. It’s risky but it’s a win-win: you either cut your losses or you regain hand and are rewarded with hot sex.

Not true. You actually want to get her talking about her ex (who she loved, especially her first love) IN PERSON, sometimes. That makes her associate you with the feelings she had for him.

This is true. It's 10 times easier to walk away knowing that she would go out with you again if you asked her than it is to think she wouldn't reply if you tried.

roflzaur. Well it depends on who dumped who. If she dumped him than you've got a guy with some burning resentment towards you who'll be doing his best to ****block you. If he dumped her than she's still got some lingering feelings for him and he can rip her out of your arms at any time.

Oh wait... Those both suck.

Tell her you don't want or need a woman who can't let go of the past. It's not fair to her and it sure as hell ain't fair to you. Now there might be a few exceptions like they had a kid together but thats a whole other can of condensed fecal matter.
