Hi,

First of all, I want to say thank you. I've been reading articles since 2013 and I'm a better man for it. Not just regarding women. But in general, my career, everything is going really well the day I decided to be a better man.

Now I've been dating girls for a long time with a high success rate of getting sex, however after the lay, I usually go to the next lay, as I grew as a person I felt that the girls I was getting in my bed were not of the standard that I would consider for a long term relationship. I've learned to value my self/my time and raised my standards a_lot when it comes to long term dating.

I'll try to give some back ground info so that you have the full picture.

I've met this girl online, as I do like to play some video games every now and then. I was trolling a bit and the girl found it very funny, added me as a friend and we ended up gaming and talking together. Turns out she lives in the same city as I do. Now we did not meet for a while as my job requires me to travel weekly, and only after 3 weeks did I manage to find a slot for meeting her. During these 3 weeks I kept texting to the bare minimum, however I would play games with her on the laptop when in my hotel, but I would just banter no real serious conversations. I've had her in tears of laugher a couple of times while playing games online. She in the mean while had found me on LinkedIn, read some articles I have published online, followed me on social media and googled me etc. (she was honest about these things), which to me showed she was quite invested.

I made a joke once, trying to be sexual, she did not really appreciate it and called me out on it: Saying, please don't give me the feeling you just want fuck me, as that's not what I'm looking for. Regardless I recovered and we met up.

We had a great date, went to an arcade hall. Had a drink afterwards with chicken nuggets. She would touch, hold my hand and even feed me the nuggets. I dropped her at home (and for god knows for what ever reason, in the back of my head it was, dont give her the you want to fuck her vibe) I hesitated and gave her a kiss on the cheek instead of her mouth. I noticed a little bit of disappointment there, and I realized I just missed an escalation window.

I went home, she texted me thank you for a good time sleep tight. Next day in the evening, I got her to download a different game and play with me as I like this game. She found the game difficult, kept dying (it was a shooter) , I took a bullet for her in the game and made the joke: Look at that after 1 date ready to take bullets. This is when she did the 180flip and went completely cold. She said, not really liking this game going to work for a bit and go to bed, goodnight.

Next day: I teksted her, saying hey I had a great time Saturday, would like to see you again, want to come over to my place watch Netflix and have sushi. (ye I did a little chasing, I realize) and she did not respond.

I waited 4 days: Sent her a tekst, that I did not mean anything by inviting her to my place (I figured she took it as Netflix and chill) but would have like to meet her in a different setting then playing a game, and wished her a marry Christmas:

Her response: Hey, I really enjoyed our date it was a_lot of fun, and we do click really well. However I'm not feeling chemistry (probably cuz I missed my escalation window) and I'm not sure if we should meet up again. (auto-rejection)?

Now usually I would skip, and move on to the next girl. However, I did some reflecting and I believe this girl does tick my boxes where in addition that she would fit into my current travel/work life style. In addition, I'm absolutely positive I am the best thing that can happen to this girl after thinking long and hard about it and I'm convinced I can make her life better, as she can mine. Considering she has some amount of time invested and her interest level was quite high till, I fucked it up, I think its possible. Therefore I would like to attempt a turn around. I've read the articles on this topic, and the turn around seems very challenging and hard too do, but I'm very certain I would atleast like to give it a shot, in thepast at first i would steer away from it, and then after some practice runs never have needed a turn around, i would like to attempt it.

Has anyone here managed to pull it off and can provide some guidance on how to proceed?

Find another girl my man. You tried enough to get her out. Only turn around that would work sounds like pre-selection.

Read the article, “can’t stop thinking about her”.

Wouldn’t pay her any mind tbh. I’ve been in situations where I thought I could get a chick that I thought about a lot, but didn’t. These were girls I messed up with though so that makes it harder to come back from. I mean do you want to ask her out again?
