Bobby Rio walks through tactics for getting an ex or a pulling-away woman to miss you, framed around never becoming her "backup plan" and avoiding obvious, heavy-handed attempts that read as emotional manipulation.

Key points

  • Two upfront mistakes to avoid: constantly checking in (which cements you as her backup plan she will not take seriously) and pointedly reminding her of past good times (comes across as manipulative and lowers your value).

1. Preemptive "emotional time capsules"

  • Build associations early that resurface later: wear a signature cologne every time you see her (smell is tied to memory), create inside jokes, and get her to open up about things she has not shared with others.
  • Often too late once she has pulled away, but starting fresh (e.g. a new cologne) can still work.

2. Leave on a high note

  • When she re-engages, do not overstay your welcome. End the interaction while it is still going well so she wants more; staying too long lets neediness and pressure leak out and erases the good vibe.

3. No stalking

  • Avoid social-media stalking: it puts you in a bad mental state and you end up knowing details you should not, which slip out and reveal you are following her. Liking and commenting on her posts just reinforces backup-plan status.

4. Mystery and jealousy

  • Trying to make her jealous openly backfires because she senses the manipulation and feels she has power over you. Instead use mystery: post ambiguous photos (an example given is a beer next to an appletini, or a romantic-concert photo) and be vague about who you were with so she wonders.

5. Competition / introduce new interests

  • Show she does not have as much power as she thinks by getting visibly excited about a new hobby or social circle, so she sees your life improving without her rather than imagining you sad and alone.

6. Be different

  • Break the "power rules" she expects (instant text replies, always available) and change visible things like growing a beard or dressing sharper to throw her off.

Reception

  • Mixed, with the most-liked comments rejecting the premise: if you have to "make" someone miss you, move on and stop chasing.
  • Several called the tactics manipulative or beneath effort, and a few mocked the framing with jokes.
  • A competing camp endorsed the underlying ideas, especially "leave them wanting more," not stalking, and acting like the prize rather than chasing.
  • A handful of personal testimonials credited Bobby Rio and Rob Judge / the Scrambler material with mindset shifts and dating success.
  • Some defenders argued the advice is really about men acting needy around women they already have a shot with, not deception.
