"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.

I was wondering on being in the moment, do you think that its better to NOT think about anything at all?

ex: "your the greatest, your the coolest hottest" ect ect..

and just stay in the present,

not thinking about the past or future.

or

be half in your head with those thoughts of greatness and the other half talking to people??
 

"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.

Pumping my ego up before making an approach, getting a number, making a power move, etc. always seemed to make doing things 100x harder.

Be zen-like. Just do.

Stailing out the area is a nono. 3 second rule at all times.

However what I would say is this:

The models are good to get you used to doing this kind of thing.

Stick with routines until you can freefflow it.

Then just be.

(I feel learning and once you have a bit of competence are frequently different beings. If you don't switch strategy between the two you'll limit your success though.)

Don't think. Do.

Return to making actions automatic

Do you think about going to the toilet. No.
 

"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.
