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.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
yea thats good.....good body languagedotcomwill said:Yea I get this sometimes,
I look at them and grin.
Im sure there is room for improvement on my body language. Ill work on that be more confident. Either way there are still girls out there that say it even if you say it confidently. How would you respond?dav22 said:If you're getting that response then chances are you're not delivering the lines properly (you could be displaying conflicting body language/be using a poor tone of voice etc.)
Just remember that you must fully believe everything you say, if you have any doubts it'll show and they'll pick up on it.
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.
Again they shouldn't really be saying that at all. Another problem could be the girls, they might find your ****iness intimidating and use the 'yeah sure' as a way to try and bring you to their level. With these types of girls i'd tone it down a bit so you still keep high value, but loose the intimidation factor.moto said:Im sure there is room for improvement on my body language.

But yeah, to actually answer.. i'd just give a bit of a smirk and move on. Don't try and back up what you've said or you'll come off even worse.
ok. thanks. Ill keep that in mind.Francisco d'Anconia said:Don't say things that are so incongruent to your nature that it seems ridiculous.
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
