So you found a man you consider to be a potential partner. Good. Now we gotta revise how the fuck we gotta text&call him.
Queen Mindset to adopt:
You're the LESS interested one, a Queen to be impressed, and the one that needs to be convinced of his quality as a partner. You're NOT the one woo'ing him, he is. Upon reading the rules, keep that mindset in mind.
Several fundamental rules:
1. You return the SAME energy as he sends you, but a little bit LESS than him.
It means that if he is double texting, you don't double text but send one single text. If he's sending 3 sentences you send him 1-2 sentences. If he's sending one emoji, you don't send him a emoji, and only send him a emoji once he's going harder with emojis. If he is writing bare effort stuff to you, you return the same but a bit less. Same principle with calls, except you return the same energy via voice.
Doing it a bit les than him sends off the message you're not hooked on him.
He gotta step it up, so that he wins your participation and online presence. You're not giving him enterainement for free with the precious thing that your attention is (that he craves A LOT).
If he pulls away and get lower effort, you mirror this too. A Pickme would double up the effort in a desperate effort to keep him around, and this way, the dynamic gets switched around; the woman is the one catering to the man. Mental energy and time is wasted on something that's SUPPOSED to be effortless.
2. You cut the communication BEFORE him
The key is to convey that you're unattainable, and that you're the busiest one, and that he HAS to ask you out to have that exclusive time he has with you.
If it's getting long and annoying or that you got something else to do, you cut it short. You're not free-on-demand enterainement, he IS. If he cuts it before you, you gotta cut him off next time. Pretend you're busy, that you got a meeting, and so on. You're the one who's less available.
3. No texting while at work, during self-care, and after 10PM.
Your time is extremely exclusive, and he has no permission to weasel himself into periods of time you're considered to be unavailable. No communication on work breaks, they're time for YOU. No communication on self-care time, this time is for YOU. If he does, IGNORE and only reply on your actual free time. If you concede and reply, you're teaching him that it's okay to push harder past your time boundaries.
Beyond 10PM, men are up to no good; they become horny lil fucks. No catering to that. You're done and you don't do sexting or sending nudes (that provides him with fap material and demeans the need to wait for the first time you guys go in "bed" that is necessary for vetting)
Also, not communicating while working projects a higher value image of you, you send off the message that you got priorities and a good work ethic, which are HV.
4. Don't be at his beck and call.
You're not his housemaid!?!!! You got a LIFE and he is not going to order you around or expect you to answer immediately. If you have difficulty with that, get your shit together and go do other stuff.
You have to convey that you're inaccessible and that he has to work hard to access you.
Also, this rule along with Rule 1: If he is sending you an answer 15 min later, take your sweet time and take 30 min to reply. Returning the same energy to the sender. If he ain't putting more effort into it you're pulling away. He has to work hard to keep the HVW you are around.
Never ever ever send INSTANT replies. The man will see you're hooked to him and will lower his efforts to woo you because in his mind he's like "oh, she is answering so fast, she was waiting for me, she's mine hahahaha no need to work harder". If you have difficulty, DO STUFF. No waiting at the cellphone. You have a life, LIVE IT.
5. If he is ghosting you, let it go. Do not send any text or call him. You let it GO.
Just a little text, it only takes 5-10 seconds to write. And it's dead easy to buy a new cellphone if ever the old one is broken (if he can't because he's broke, you don't wanna date him). He has NO excuse to not text you if he is in trouble. If it has been 2+ days, let it go. He's not interested and that's good because you only want interested fellas around you.
Pickup artists often do ghosting as a way to provoke you into going Pickme for them.
6. Even if you have to fake it, make him see that you have a LIFE besides him.
Abusers, rapists, PUAs, redpillers all prey on longely unconfident women because they're the MOST easy to manipulate into submission and insolation.
HVM would see in a woman having a support& friendship network as a sign of a whole woman that is not likely to become a desperate pickme clinger.
To apply this rule: tell him some evenings that you're going at a friend's to watch movies or that you're doing a hike with a friend the upcoming weekend. The friend can be fictive.
If you don't have friends and a support network, work on this as a priority because this is essential for safety, if ever you need to gtfo a shitty situation. Do not dismiss that, it is essential.
7. No question/conversation topic in the last few messages he did send? No reply.
That's it. You're not the one leading the dance, he has. You're the one that must be seduced, woo'ed. He has to hook your attention, and if he is notputting in any effort to hook you, you're not hooked. That's it.
8. Ultimately, once you are beyond the initial dating stages, keep the calling & texting to superficial topics and reserve the deeper and more interesting topics for IRL meetings.
Quiproquos are so easy to have via texting&calling, and they can sour the relationship. Body language/tone for deeper, serious, critical topics, is absolutely essential and conveys so much more information than simple calls or texts.
As a side effect, you'll be seen as someone interesting to meet, as the conversation will be captivating, and he will ask you to date again.
Also this will help you avoid the penpal/silent IRL trap, as you both will have interesting topics to talk about on dates!
If you're not sure of the best strategy to adopt, remind yourself of the QUEEN MINDSET at the beginning of this post 👑 Not all special cases are included in this post, but you have to trust your GUT.
