"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.

"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.
If it's anything like my gym, you'll have to make an appointment with the instructor for when you want the appraisal because sometimes they get too busy. Maybe you should ring them up first, or just pop in to the gym and make an appointment.Originally posted by MidnightResistance
I understand a tiny bit, but not much at all.
Getting instruction at the gym will be a huge help to me.
When is a good time and day to go to the gym so that it's quiet so I can get the help I need?
Just go to the gym learn how to do all the lifts and don't worry about all the combinations to start.
But do record your weights and reps, so few people do. Not sure how they ever know if they are progressing.

One of my ex's brothers was HUGE when I met him. A couple of months later he was really thin. He had no idea what had happened. From reading this forum I can tell he started doing too many reps and not enough weight, so he burnt off all that mass.
I should get a day off work in the week sometime soon. I'll drop in then and see if I can book an appointment.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

this is the farthest thing from the truth. look through the picture index.. there are hundreds of people who know there sht(unlike here uhum heizen)..bodybuilding isn't rocket scienceOriginally posted by Heizen
No. BBing.com forums are full of ****, especially the teen section. The people who know what they are doing are far and few between, and many of them take steroids so their routines are useless to a natty lifter. Stay away from the forums. The main site is OK for info though.
