"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.

You know the feeling you have after having se x with really hot girl for the first time, you know when you're driving home , good song on the radio, the would just seems to slow down, your mind is blank, and you're feeling pretty damb good about yourself. You're pretty full if yourself and feeling like one co cky basta rd.

Just one example. Loads of things that envoke those feelings.

I was thinking. For me this state fades I can't really hold onto it, I eventually slip back into the noise, until some external factors invokes that state again.

Well regardless of what caused this state, it's all internal. Your brain is causing it.

I thinking it's more than mindfulness, it's ****y almost arrogance.

Possibly to change your programming to turn this into your default or wishful thinking?

I think.it might be more than mindfulness. Could be wrong.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Lol I think the same can also be said when your tidying stuff around your house and putting things in order.

Once you're done sweeping the floors and doing your chores you have a sense of accomplishment....but it still gotta be done regardless.

I know what you mean and it’s pure bliss! When I feel this is when I have my **** together; aka doing work (job) that I like, things going my way and having a girl on call !! Haha .

It’s been a month and nothing going on my way other than job which is making me depressed :(

I’m really eyeing one store that I cannot get hold of which is making me depressed! I didn’t know my work can cause this much lol.
