"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Home values go up over time. House from 2008 have since rebounded and then some. There is a finite amount of land and steadily increasing inflation. Those fundamentals will not change in this lifetime.
Exactly but home prices went down first in 2009 before they went back up. The people that bought at the height back in 2007 lost their shirts and never recovered until recently. A lot were under water and just foreclosed, short saled, or just walked away. You DO NOT want to be one of those people.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Wow...GREAT call on the M3...CONGRATS
I also bought a fixer upper '74 BMW 2002tii 10 years ago. It's worth at a minimum $12k now. If I upgrade a few items, it's easily $15k.

My P-Car is +$7k in appreciation.

Currently working on converting R100 airhead into a cafe racer...

You shouldn’t be buying a house to short-sell in the first place. They go up over time.

No one said anything about buying a house to short sell. The housing market is cyclic and does go up overall but how house poor and the quality of life you want will be determined by when you buy. Would you rather buy at the height or the low regardless of how long you plan on keeping it? Buying at the low allows you to build instant equity. It also gives you more padding for lower payments, avoid pmi, leverage your equity for heloc loans, let's you be house rich, etc.

No one should be buying houses right now as it's at the height.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

That’s what you’re implying. Houses appreciate over time due to fundamentals that will not change. How “house poor” is the buyers choice. If you can’t afford it, don’t buy it. There is no use trying to “time” the market. Short sellers make the money on the purchase, not the appreciation.

If you are Choosing between white and yellow go for yellow.
If you didn't see it in a dark green, then you should look it up.

Lol, we'll agree to disagree. I've had 3 investement properties and owned 6 hourses since college. My current house is fully paid off. I've been through the previous housing crash as an owner and investor. I'm not speaking from the bench.

By your logic, you should be looking to buy a house now while the prices are all sky high.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

How do you run game in gold diggers? Very interested in this
First and foremost one must let go oft the whole alpha and beta mindset. It's been proven women get sexually aroused by men that show cues that they can provide. Red pill community has engraved in men's heads that if your a wealthy guy girls will secretly **** the pool boy behind your back while they milk you dry and that just isn't true. Whether a girl wants to sleep with me because she finds me handsome, funny, or thinks I'm rich it doesn't matter all that matters is if I ****ed her or not. And if the sex isn't good I'm out
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

While that may be true I’ve been poor all my life and get girls regularly. Only once the girls start seeing me as a long term monogamous partner do they start to care about me being able to provide ime

If guys are huffing and puffing over a 60-80k car then I'm sure they'll be doing the same for my $4k bicycle. LOL
You must have bought it used then :up: I have a stable, but I'll never ever sell my Klunker.

You should be able to save a lot. They're out of production so choose a good used one. Facelift or not it doesn't matter. The limited edition ones will cost a lot more but may hold value over time.

Don't expect the AMG's modern amenities and expect even worse reliability. Ultimately it's an aspirated Ferrari engine with all the pros & cons that brings over the turboed AMG.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
