How do you deal with a girl who, when you meet her (informal date), repeatedly tells you that she doesn't like guys who play games, who don't call back right away, etc?
Ok, these are things girls say, but never met one who say it explicitly on a date.
From her discussion, I guess she was recently pumped and dumped (a solid 8 chasing a guy... and speaking about this many times).
At one point she told me that if a guy is interested, he should text her the day after the date...
Thoughts?
When she starts going on about not liking guys who play games, you should look very bored. Make it obvious. Look around the bar (or whever you are) and if she doesn't stop, cut her off and say "be right back" and go take a walk. When you come back, don't offer an excuse, just start talking about something you want to talk about. If she eventually starts with that nagging shit again, lean back in your chair to put some distance between you and her and start looking around again. Stare at other things intently...make it obvious she doesn't have your attention. If she calls you out for being rude, aloof, or otherwise disengaged, tell her something like "Well I didn't plan on having to listen to your insecurities the whole night. How about we forget about what you don't like and focus on what we both want."
An alternative approach is to give her shit when she starts talking about all these "rules." Ask the waitress for a pen and small piece of paper (in front of the girl) and when the girl starts going on about these bullshit rules, start writing shit down. When she asks what you're doing, tell her something like "girl, you have so many rules I have to write this shit down to keep track." Use your own language best suited for your personality, but just keep in mind:
1) It's all about you. Forget what she thinks about or wants from men.
2) When she does something obviously stupid and annoying, let her know in an obvious way. Bottom line here is don't let her get away with treating you like a beta in any way, shape or form.
3) Play it cool and be in control. No matter what you do, if you play it cool, you can make it work. You need to take control of the conversation early on and she'll learn not to talk that "guys need to do this, guys need to do that..." bullshit.
4) Roissy commandment III.
You shall make your mission, not your woman, your priority. Always, ALWAYS know your mission and have your plan to execute that mission. Don't let her take you off course by talking bullshit. Manipulate her. Use her. Do whatever you need to do to execute your mission. See other commandments
