Comments on: New Rule: Three Strikes and You're Out http://www.hammer86blog.com/2008/12/02/new-rule-three-strikes-and-youre-out/ We are men in 2010 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 06:58:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Hammer http://www.hammer86blog.com/2008/12/02/new-rule-three-strikes-and-youre-out/comment-page-1/#comment-128 Hammer Mon, 08 Dec 2008 01:17:01 +0000 http://hammer86.wordpress.com/?p=120#comment-128 I would say that is partially true, but not entirely. If that was entirely true, then I wouldn't be able to meet up with them in the future ever, which is something that I have done many times. Sometimes it's been by just asking them until they were available, other times it was as a result of cutting them off and having them come to me, but it has definitely been done before. Whatever the case, the point of the post is that I realized that I was becoming more interested in these women because of the fact that they were blowing me off, and if it's happening to me I know it's happening to other guys.

She'll offer up an alternative day when she knows she IS available, because she doesn't want to take the chance that you'll think she's not interested and move onto someone else. So, it's unlikely that someone who has only spent an hour and a half with you[1], and isn't interested in spending any *more* time with you, would actually feel any sense of "responsibility" to find the time to see you after having turned you down three times in a row already. But, humans being the fickle creatures that they are, once she realizes you've lost interest in the pursuit, she might just suddenly perk up and come sniffing around. [1] In a bar? Making out? Perhaps she had a little too much to drink and regrets getting that carried away with you. What seems like a good idea at night can leave you with an icky feeling when the sun comes up.

I actually don't even go that far. I give two tries and if they don't make an attempt to reschedule then I don't even bother. Passion and connection go hand-in-hand for me and if you don't have to desire to keep up a connection then it's not worth it to me and I won't have to waste my time anymore. Besides, it's not like any of us are without other options and are dependent on this one anyway. Fair to say that it can get annoying once in a while. Hammer, I totally agree.
