"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.

You develop a sense over time. It can't really be quantified in my opinion. You can quantify interest, but women often fake interest to be nice and avoid a confrontation, and the bigger issue is that just because she is actually interested doesn't mean she will go on a date with you. She may have a boyfriend, may not be in the right head-space, may want to date but deliberately denies herself due to job or school or god only knows what, or she may be crazy. Bottom line, you can't tell.

It sounds like you're trying to avoid rejection. Get over that. You say you don't want to waste time but how much time are you wasting sending her that initial text? I know it's disappointing to not get a response back, but you have to get over that. It happens to the best of us. Frequently. And besides, it's not just the first text girls flake on. They will flake on you after your first date. Second date. Second month. Etc. You just have to keep on keeping on.

Also don't ever send a girl two texts with no response from her. Don't delete her number either. Send your text and forget about her unless you hear back. Go in with low expectations. Get more numbers - that way you won't be hit so hard by the flakes.
What's wrong with texting twice ? After she takes a while from first one( 6+ hours ) I like to send a second just for the purpose to know if she isn't interested (by not texting by the end of day) to move on quickly..I don't want to have her in my phone and text her days/ weeks out again and try again I can't people actually do that on here.....like the b**** never connected she's useless lol
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

There was a chick who didn't text back today after I asked for her number before she left(vs asking her out and getting her number if she says sure) yesterday. 2 texts than I deleted her number. From now on I'm always going to ask them out to a place/day at initial conversation so I know shes attracted to me and not wasting each other's time...like I usually do.
By the way whats a sure fire 'sign' from your experience during an initial conversation that you noticed consistently with every chick who you actually went out with? I know real men shouldn't be looking for signs, but sometimes it would be cool to know so were not wasting out time...women are great saying whatever they want to a guy whether she really is into him or not so when you say if the interaction is going well, they can put on their nice facade and do that touching their hair showing fake flirty signs.
Like @oldmanofthesea says, you develop a sense over time as your experience grows. There's no such thing as a surefire sign, because any sign can mean nothing by itself. I could probably write several long paragraphs about how to read people well and it still won't make you good at it.

True. True.
