"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.

This show is really f*cking awesome. Awesome characters, smart and witty humor and great story development.

The main character though, is like the school example of a ladies man. Main part of the story: he's got a kid with a woman he's still in love with. She's gonna get married to some other guy but she's still in love with him really. Throughout the show he pursuades her and tries to get her back. In the meanwhile he pretty much f*cks everything that moves. Really cool to watch how this character handles the girls in the show. He's the perfect example of the bad boy-style, and he pulls it off wonderfully.

Really one of the best shows that's on right now. Aside from what I've written above here, it's really ****ing worth it to watch it for the story too. Again, it's an awesome show. I'm going to watch the season's finale tomorrow.
 

"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.

I put my vote in with Snowdog -- fantastic show, awesome main character. Good stuff all around.

The main character is a weird mix of major AFC and badass though. Still, for all his AFCness, he doesn't take other people's **** at all, and with the random chicks he hooks up with he's got major game.

I don't know what you are really talking about but it sounds ok.

One of my favorite quotes is from The Jon Dore Television Show.

(Jon's @ a clinic)
Jon: Do you have to be celibate before you come here?
Doctor: No, that is just a myth.
Jon: So in theory, you could be celibate for a year before you come here. Wouldn't you blow the roof off this god damn place?
 

"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.
