Some of you have been following the saga of the 20-year-old; I’d given up on her, and we last texted on June 9, when I sent her a morning-after, thanks for the lovely evening text, and then she replied in kind and I never replied in turn. Not texting her since wasn’t really “game” on my part, because I was tired of chasing her, despite how much I like sex with her.
Today she wrote me, “Hey, sorry I didn’t get to see you very much before I went home for a bit. I had way more going on than I expected! Will let you know when I’m back.” Then there was a (non-sexual) callback to something specific between us.
So that’s interesting. I’m going to reply tomorrow with something like, “Cool, lmk when you’re back,” and then a reference to her callback. I’m not expecting much. Usually, chicks either drop off or we keep having sex. This chick has been a reliable responder and has showed up to some dates, but she’s not gotten reliably into the rotation.
I reiterate my assertion that “Attention is the only tool modern men have.” Most guys waste their attention.
I think I said something like this before, but the 20-year-old has some minor health issues; she does seem to have a complicated work and family life; and she might be juggling other dudes. Well, she’s certainly juggling other dudes, I just don’t know how far that goes. And I don’t care much. I can’t affect that. I can only affect myself.
She’s also scattered and disorganized, like most chicks her age. I see a lot of guys trying to read into chicks’ inscrutable behavioral clues. Sometimes the right answer is about game, sometimes the right answer is, “She’s scattered, she doesn’t know what she wants, she doesn’t care very much about guys unless she wants it.” In other words, there is no “reason” as to why she behaves the way she behaves. I think my game with her has been imperfect but fine. I haven’t done a lot wrong, apart from sub-standard (but still functional) sex the first time we did it.
When I was less experienced I thought that there is always a right answer and a meaning behind chicks’ behaviors. I have learned to love the chaotic and random hypotheses.
(Amendment: She says she isn’t coming back until August, so that’s that.)

>> because I was tired of chasing her, despite how much I like sex with her
This makes me smile. Other than guys that never stop chasing (no matter what)… every guy knows this feeling.

Yeah.
And from Krauser’s book: ““A girl’s propensity to put out… depends a lot on context, unrelated to whatever personal qualities you may have. ”
Having more of this ^ in the space would help guys realize… it isn’t always “your game.” And the part that IS your game… is often about extending your game out to more plates so you’re not reliant on any given girls specifics.
What’s the status with this girl? Is she still in the mix?

This probably also depends on where you are in the game. For beginner guys with little experience and low skill, much of the time their game or lack thereof is the biggest impediment, and it’s impossible to separate out the no-girls or flakey girls relative to the girls who are open to a guy with sufficient game.
As the game improves, the problems are less likely to be about failed game and much more likely to be about the girl herself. Or a guy just not being the girl’s type.

“(Amendment: She says she isn’t coming back until August, so that’s that.)” Supposedly. There is a party I’d like to bring her to in July, but I doubt it will happen. Her story about when she’s going to be in town and available versus home keeps changing, too. Truly a girl who lives in the land of “maybe,” even more than most chicks. I’m not optimistic.
I have done some general approaches while I’m out, but nothing interesting to report.
