no comment, all the others have done it already.
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.
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.

Player, I saw the title of this thread and its' originator and your name as the last post and I laughed right away because I knew you were going to give him a hard time based on his reply on eternal's thread!
Must you be so cruel? Do you have a heart?

I replied on the other post, PRL, it's cool, Poser Supreme isn't capable of saying anything even mildly insulting.
I was done with the other thread, but I just had to post 1 last time in respons, just to tear PS a new *******. peace
Hahaha ... oh my god ... I'm not even going to bother to read your post.
The fact that I got SOOOO under your skin must mean that I struck a nerve.
Things only get underneath a person's skin when there is TRUTH to them. That implies that every thing I said about you is based in fact.
You are a loser, a wannabe who tries to pass himself off as a "mack" or "pimp" or some other sorry ass "nigga" version of what it is to be good with women.
You're what, 35 years old? Shouldn't you be out with women instead of on your keyboard all day getting close to 4000 posts? That is just sad.
The fact that someone who is 26 and has never had a gf can call you sad, that means you REALLY must be pathetic.
Stop living in your little fantasy world. No one is buying your ****.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

I'm 26 and I've never had a gf. I haven't had a date in years. I feel like less of a man because of it. The worse part is I'm not that hopeful that things are going to change ...
I've read the dj bible and a lot of the posts here. They're great, I really wish I had known about this a few years ago. Back then I had much more confidence, and if I saw a woman I was attracted to, I didn't have much of a problem going up to her. Although I may have been nervous, at least I'd make the effort.
Now, I feel like I don't have a chance in hell, so I don't go up to any women I see. I know from experience that the women I'm attracted to, don't dig my type (skinny). I haven't gotten a phone number since April.
I've been working out for almost a year, and haven't put on any weight.
Sorry if this sounds lame, I just had to vent. It's frustrating as hell, and very depressing at times.

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
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.
