"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.

Balding

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

The thing about caps making you lose your hair is a myth. It's just that balding guys tend to wear caps so people started making the association. If covering up hair made you lose it, then nobody would have chest hair, leg hair, back hair, or pubes.

After reading this thread of postings, I had all the amunition I needed. I had my fiance' trim me up at 1/8" length. She LOVES it and I'm a lot less self conscious about the way I look. I starting balding at 19 and now, at the ripe age of 25, the hair style I had my whole life was looking like a comb over. I probably thought about my hair 75% of the time. I was depressed. Not to knock anyone else, but if you start losing your hair in your 30's or 40's its readily acceptable. When you are in your early 20's your whole life feels like its crashing down. Now for the real reason for my posting - Thank YOU to everyone who posted. You liberated a youthful soul!

If you have quite fair hair you can bleach it blond and the baldness won't show so much, although this only really works in the early stages.

You can also get a product called Dermatch that is basically makeup that covers your scalp, again, only works in the early stages of baldness.

Don't mess about with wigs or hair transplants, they're way too much trouble.

The only combovers I have seen that work are when you just make a 'bridge' between the narrowest part of the bald spot on the top of the scalp. As soon as you start trying to cover your whole head with long strands or having a parting below the normal height, don't bother.

Best thing once it's too gone to cover up, just trim it short to around 1/4 in and spike it up a bit on top. Don't shave it off completely because you'll look like a cancer victim.
