A girl that is acting cold and distant may prove to be a frustrating situation for any guy. Learn what to do when she backs away from you.
A common issue that many guys have faced in one time of their lives or another is a girl or even a girlfriend that starts to act cold and distant. A woman may back away from her plans without warning – even though you guys seemed to have great dates and chemistry!
So you’ve had a couple of really great first dates – and everything seems to be running smoothly. She answers your texts within minutes, and it’s not uncommon for the two of you to text back and forth on a regular basis.
Suddenly, without warning – her good morning and good night texts no longer become apparent. She’s taking longer to answer your text messages. Rather than minutes, she’s now taking hours or even days.
To your dismay – you might even try to ask her out on another date but she is acting evasive and aloof about her schedule!
Worse of all – you might even have begun to get attached to this girl. In fact, the more interest you show – the more she seems to back away!
Before we can talk about what to do if she begins to act cold and distant, you must learn why a girl acts distant and cold in the first place.
Maybe a new guy that she recently met on a dating site or even someone at the coffee shop that caught her eye
If your girlfriend is suddenly acting cold and distant, there may be very distinct reasons why. I cover a few reasons below:
Reason #1: She’s Acting Cold and Distant Because Her Interest Level is Dropping- This is by far the most obvious reason – but a reason that many guys can’t see in the midst of their infatuation with a girl. It doesn’t matter if you’d had 3 or 4 even 10 great dates – a girl can start to act cold and distant often without warning. This is due to her interest level dropping.
Her interest could be dropping due to a variety of reasons, but after years of this happening to me – I rationalized it out to a few main reasons:
Yes, it might seem like your playing games – but modern dating today is mostly a chess game
There’s no bigger turnoff for a woman than a guy that is needy and desperate. If you are being too available or too quick to answer her text messages – stop now. This means taking longer to answer her messages – being less available and not taking the first offer for a date.
You’re Too Much of a Nice Guy- Yes, you don’t want to hear this but women prefer the “sexy” guy over the “nice guy.” Deep down, they want the bad boy who lives on the edge. If you always cater to a woman’s needs – she will find you unattractive. This was my problem for many years. It’s a fallacy that niceness will attract women. Stop now.
Reason #2: A Girl May Act Cold and Distant Because She’s Talking to Another Guy- Yes, she might have an ex-boyfriend that she recently started talking to again.
If this is the case, it is rarely worth trying to compete against the other guy. You will lose every second of your time. If she has gone cold, she has made a conscious once nadelen decision. Her actions are telling the whole story.
