                      Why This Works

                      People want what others desire. It's called preselection. Use it.

                      The Details

                      Compliment other girls. It reminds her she's not the only fish in the sea.

                      Delay your replies. Don't look desperate. Make her wonder if you've lost interest.

                      Weekday communication only. Silence on evenings and weekends implies you're dating. Let her imagination run wild.

                      Flirt and vanish. Say something nice, then go silent for a week. Keep her guessing. Try:

                      • "You looked beautiful last night."
                        • "That photo reminded me why I fell for you."

                          Look better. Hit the gym. Dress well. Update your online photos. Good physique is rare today. Stand out.

                          Be happy. Positivity attracts. Misery repels.

                          Socialize with women. Show her you're comfortable around other girls.

                          Have adventures. Visit new places. Share photos. Make her wish she was there.

                          Go public online. Let her see you chatting with other women.

                          Send a "mistake" text. As a last resort, text her something meant for another girl. Keep it clean. Example: "Left my jacket at yours. Bring it later? x"

                          Extra Tips

                          Visit her area. Go to local spots she knows. It keeps you in her mind.

                          Be subtle. If she thinks you're playing games, it won't work.

                          Stay safe. Don't send inappropriate texts. Keep things light and friendly.

                          Remember
