Hi all,
I'm not a complete noob to this stuff, my personal favourite was a girl i sarged on a plane, weirdest hour of my life though!

Anyway, my situation is this - about a year and half ago me and a girl got quite close, then i ran out of texts when she went on holiday! its a shame, but we inevitably drifted a bit then it was never the same.

Saw her again in person for the first time in ages the other day, she's definitely top of my list of who i want at the moment. But how do i rekindle the interest? Every now and then she texts me, and we have a little chat but then thats it for a while.

Oh, and how good is the game book by strauss? worth getting? In the past i've only used my natural game.

Cheers anyway

Hey dude, welcome,

If you have some natural game, I'd strongly advise you not to clutter yourself with "PUA" material, read some stuff on female psychology and social dynamics stuff, some Alpha male stuff would help too.

Don't look for "routines" etc. If you like this girl you must start escalating things again so you can get out from the texting game and into a date (keep it casual). Remember you cant have sex through the phone (no, sexy talk doesnt count as sex).

As you say you're not a noob at "this" whatever that is, I wouldn't worry about adding more information but practicing and learning from what you already know, does that make sense?

Best Luck!

cheers mate - i was thinking of going down that route anyway.

the problem i have is i need ideas to start the escalating by text, never really had to do it this way before. The only stuff i've seen seems way too forward to quickly, but i've already used stuff like randomly texting her saying "hey lovely, how are you" and that

Study your own frame and discover why it isnt getting you the results you want:

Not escalating
Not making her any more "comfortable"
Not Sneaky
Not Assertive

Do you know why she texts you "once in a while"? Because she's hoping you'll ask her on a date, otherwise if she wanted a over-txt relationship wouldnt she txt you everyday?

Hope that makes sense, Best luck!

ps. Its fine to have your own beliefs and all that good stuff but are your beliefs getting you the results you want? or could you try to discover something new? Just because you initially thought girls behave a certain way, it doesnt mean that you're always right.

you make good points, thankyou for the feedback!

I guess its just my own caution, once bitten twice shy and all that. Any good example texts that get the right message across?

Sorry you ask the wrong guy for text scripts, I call them and just tell them briefly whats going on, whatever was worth remembering about the topics we talked about when we met then I INVITE, not ask them out.

If they don't answer I hang up, I just forget about it for a while, they usually have a decent excuse when they finally call or text back. When I EXCHANGE numbers, I always tell her Im calling her right there and then, her phone rings, she saves my name while she still remembers it, girls are mostly social butterflies and you should try to be remembered somehow.

I've noticed how when a girl's phone rings and she says she doesn't know who that is she will not answer...it could be her mom with a broken leg calling from someone's cellphone after a car accident but w.e.

Anyway...in a nutshell, come up with something fun and casual you could do WITHOUT her and just invite her into it, for example You're going to the book store to buy this one book You want, you can just tell her to come along and you two can grab a coffee next door, keep it short and simple.

Best Luck
