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 could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Who are the saps in a relationship with them? (they must be getting some even though they're being constantly disrespected)PapiChulo said:If we were fu*king them, they would be just the wh*res, not AWs. They get off mostly on attention from many many men, as we all know, yet I have to admit that I am currently being gamed by two AWs while trying to flip the game on them, f*ck them and disappear. The ones with low self-esteem are the easier lays. AWs are people too and are in relationships most of the time.
This should answer that question:pikachu69 said:They say avoid the attention wh0res cos they're nothing but trouble.. but someone's got to be f'ing them.. who??
Seems like just right time right place, opportunistic lay.
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.

One night I had some girl(who's name I didn't know and just met that night) ready to go, with her boyfriend right there at this hotel party. I have a field report up on here about it.
She was an AW. I walked up to her when she was sitting at the bar. I said something. She told me to hang on and was texting. 99% of dudes would've sat there and waited for her for her to give him some attention.
New in the DJ ways, I said F-that! I walked away and started talking to a buddy, my time was more valuable. I forget about her, sure enough , 30 min to an hour later she walks up TO ME and starts flirting.

Reactions may vary indeed. But the point I was trying to make is I wasn't going to care or sweat over it either way.women haze said:I don't think it had anything to do with you leaving, she might have just been interested in how you look.
I have done this before and when I leave they don't come find me, they just say "oh well" and move on to the next one.
I am all for Field reports but do not post stuff like that and represent it as fact like if all men do XYZ this happens.
Reactions may vary....
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.
Pretty much this in every way. What I've found helps is keeping them at arms length and denying them validation/attention. Drives them up the wall creating a chase frame with me as the prize. Then when I do go out with them (as friends of course) I milk them for all the preselection I can get and use it to pick up other women in front of them. Hey, we're just friends right? Completely flips the script and drives them wild. I think this is where players succeed with these types of women and most guys fail, they don't know how to use their own nature against them, and players having lots of women get invoke AND USE that reflective form of preselection.floydb25 said:There's more to AW's than just seeking attention. They're leeches, as well. They do have sex a lot, because they manipulate men constantly. It's their sport. They use and play people for everything - not just attention. Gifts, rides, money, sex - you name it. They're completely fake. Whatever relationship they get involved in doesn't last very long, because they're always getting with someone else, sleeping around, etc. Most AW's have lots of guy friends, which they circle around, sleep with, and use for whatever they can conive out of them. Bad news all around.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
