"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 sometimes hang out at this one nightclub. No cover, I hang with a few friends, dance with some Filipinas that are really just "dancing friends" etc.....
There's this one chick. Many moons ago, I was kinda flirting with her and she seemed interested. She's "OK" looking, but I was not really that serious. We exchanged numbers, but we never went out. One time oughta boredom, I called her pretending to be someone else....just a silly prank call, but she went totally crazy on me. Said that I shouldn't have called her when she was at work...blah blah blah. I tried to explain that I was just trying to add some fun to her life, but OK, I was sorry.....Whatever..........
She goes around the club telling every female that will listen how I'm such a terrible guy....I know a lot of these chicks she was talking to, and they were laughing at her behind her back for creating so much drama out of nothing. They tell me she's kinda crazy (well yeah.........!!!)
Here's the deal. She's started bringing a friend to the club. Smoking !!! A 9 or a 10.....This chick has guys on her all night trying to hook up, but she just dances then leaves with Ms. Nutjob every night.
I want to work it. Do I go up to her and say "Don't judge me based on what your friend is saying.....Let me explain........"
The big problem is that these 2 never are separate the whole evening. Advice welcome...........
 

"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.

No need for explanations. Just put your game on her. She will eventually form her own judgment of you, or edit her Ms. nutjob's version of you.

Your present actions will speak voluminously more than rumors.

If she's a "good" friend of the crazy one, she'll tease you and then embarass you in front of as many people as possible.

You have to separate the haters from the targets, and that's almost impossible if they show up together and leave together. You'd never get more than 10 minutes alone with her, and can you imagine how hateful the crazy one would be if she came back to her friend and you were chatting it up with her?
