Maybe he should try hitting on the boyfriends..........?
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.
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.
WATCH OUT JOHNCHOPS HE MIGHT CAPSLOCK YOU TO DEATH!!!!Philippe Schlichting said:Didn't read any further. Watch your tone.
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.

I do daygame. So I am out in the city walking around. I find a girl who is on her own and who is my type. I am approaching and every time some dude I did not see starts kissing her hugging her then and there.
I want to know how to deal with that. Literally. Making her laugh is unrealistic in that situation. We all know that women don't want to decide and if in doubt they stay with that sh.ithead.
I do not want to be friends with him.
No, it is not her best friend or brother. I am intelligent enough to distinguish that.

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.

Funny how this can also be applied to seducing.VladPatton said:Basic principles of hand-to-hand combat: :box:
1. Be aggressive
2. Keep your eyes on the opponent
3. Distract the opponent
4. Disable or be disabled
5. Vary the attack to fit the situation
6. Turn the defense into an unrelenting attack
7. Feel superior to the opponent regardless of the latter's size or evidence of strength

She is standing right next to him. What is appropriate?VladPatton said:5. Vary the attack to fit the situation
Do you think this is funny? Do you think I have nothing better to do than write this post because I am bored?SgtSplacker said:Many women get really turned on by tests/feats of strength. Just walk up to the dude she's with grab him firmly by the shoulder and force him down to his knees to bow before you. She will fall into your arms guaranteed!
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.
