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.
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
I agree iwth this 100%. The virginity bit is also true, have you ever met a woman who was in her 20's or 30's who was a virgin? Nope. The only time a woman ever goes without, especially if she's slightly above average looking, is if she herself chooses to beMaxtro said:What a craptastic post.
Women do not have issues getting guys, unless she is ugly and or fat, but even then there is still some guy who will go for her simply because she has a pussy. The silly insignificant traits that they think condemn them to failure with men, have no impact at when it comes to men.
The only real issue girls may have with getting guys, is getting guys that meet their ridiculous standards. "Oh poor me, I'm 5'2 and I can't find any really hot guys that are 6'2 and blond with a 6-pack. I'm going to be alone forever" Of course the bitch pays no attention to the 10 other guys that are actively after her, and she knows that they want her. But because they don't' meet her criteria she ignores them.
Girls issues in finding someone of the opposite sex is nowhere near as bad as men. When was the last time you saw a girl who was a virgin in her 20's because she couldn't get a guy?
Only a person who has no problem with getting girls would think that girls have it as bad as guys do.

Exactly.Maxtro said:Only a person who has no problem with getting girls would think that girls have it as bad as guys do.
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.

Then I misunderstand this site. I thought the premise of this site was about trying to hook up average guys with hot girls. My mistake. And yes, I am rejecting average girls daily because having sex with them isn't exciting for me anymore. Maybe when I was 18 it was fun for a while, but now that I am older I really don't want to even be seen with a 5 or a 6.You have not been here long. Virginity abounds. sosuave is not a site full of guys who are rejecting average women left and right. If you are, then good for you. But most guys here just need to get laid. If they could get to the level of being able to nail average chicks all the time, then that would help a lot in having the mindset to get the hot ones.
I respect your opinion on this, but think its completely wrong. Many of the hot girls I know are tired of average guys hitting on them while many of the average girls sit alone and wonder why no guys are hitting on them at all. The difference between the two is that one class laments a certain type of attention while the other class yearns for it. In the abstract sense, sure, they both have "problems", but the root of those problems is so incredibly different it should not be lumped together as one. Additionally, all females are emotional wrecks, we guys just notice the emotional wreckage of the hot girls while dismissing the wreckage of the average girls as "just something that average girls do."I still think attractive women have the same problems as guys, at least in an abstract sense: insecurity, anxiety, low self-esteem, fear of rejection, fear of being used. Everyone has problems - there is no perfect life, regardless of how attractive you are.
See, what you don't understand is that they DO have problems just like we do. The thing is, THEIR problems are different from OUR problems.Maxtro said:What a craptastic post.

You would be hard pressed to prove that any male with a pen15 is not trying to get into the pants of a hot girl from the moment he looked at her. For the sake of clarity, there are only two states of being for a male near an attractive female: 1) in her pants 2) not in her pantsNot to mention, they also have to figure out which guys are being genuine and which guys are running PUA bull**** on them just to get in their pants.
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.
