"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.

talking to this girl online for like 2 months. I've actually met her in person before. she is a friend of an ex-gf. I talk to her every three days or so - but usually she messages me first. sometimes she drunk calls me and drunk txts me. I want to **** this girl bad but I don't know. We are supposed to meet up in like 3 weeks or 2 weeks. I am actually going out of town to see her (possibly bad idea). She had sex with a friend of mine a while back and she has this weird crush on him but she keeps it from me. Only way I know is that he tells me everything. He totally ignores her and doesn't know I want to sleep with her. I dunno. I'm stressed as hell because I can't read body language over a **** instant message conversation. I want to pursue this and want to know the best way to go about it. I totally can't think so clear right now. I think we may be talking to much online and I want to at least not talk to her for a week. one time she mentioned being upset about my friend not liking her but then said "maybe we shouldn't be talking about this". and I'm like "why? because I'm his friend or for some other reason?" and she was like "I don't know". what the heck? I am over-analyzing I know and I blame it on the MSG thanks to crummy Chinese restaurants. curses.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Uh.........

Then why the f.uck are you talking to a girl you want to bang over IMs? God damn this will never make sense to me and I cringe just reading it.

She is average at best, but has you stressed out to the core.. lol.. Bull ****.

Build rapport through IMs? Retarded imo.

After talking to her for 2 months you can't just call her and tell her to come over?

She has a crush on your friend, is "average at best" - why are you even wasting your breath? I would take an even money bet that she is using you to get to your friend.

If you don't want to talk to her for a week - there is a block button.. Try using it. I'd recommend not removing her from the block list as well.

Sad really. I see your friend has acidently or adently pick up the dons mannerism. He doesn't give a dam shate.
While you cling on to supplimenting her ego. Stop!
Sorry but your friend has got the lead.
This is fight you already lost.
Move on before your energy is wasted some more.
Improve yourself. Start fresh.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

You're supposed to drop her, because she is using you.

Take off the god damn blind fold, man.

she is never going to be around me and my friend at the same time again. she doesn't talk to me about him. she lives in a different country. (one I am in right now on study abroad). she has no chance of seeing him.
 

"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.

You developed oneitis over the internet? Get a hold of yourself man. Going out of town to visit a girl you've never actually met? No good.

I don't understand how Don Juaning seems to equal for you not giving a girl ANY attention. I am interested. I assume she is interested because she agreed to hanging out with me and she messages me. I'm interested for whatever reason and you guys think I'm supposed to be totally hard to get? yeah lemme never talk to her. great tactic. that's how I get laid everytime. not talking to girls ever.

yeah. so she caught herself real quick. girls can't be interested in more than one guy? as soon as I **** her, he won't be on her mind again.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

She likes your friend a lot.. going out of town just to see her is a complete waste.. you haven't even hooked up with her. What exactly do you think is gonna happen? You'll woo her by visiting so much she'll sleep with you? Move on.. you're wasting your time.
