Reply To: Make outs mean nothing

persistent–not INsistent. Chasing is like pleading almost–“come on–give me a shot. Please??’ Persistent is more matter-of-fact–you’re giving the girl a couple of chances. Kind of like if you go to kiss a girl and she rebuffs you–that doesn’t mean she’ll rebuff you again the next time. But in that moment, you should pull back and take the “no means no” mantra seriously. Some guys say “Oh, come on. Why not? come onnnn.” And maybe the girl gives in–but that’s not really what you want. You want her to meet you because she wants to.

So insistence/chasing is kind of pleading–persistence is more dominant “Hey–i’m going to give you one more shot–if it works, great. If not, ok.”
