Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
"Call Me Tomorrow"
- Thread starter iveyleeger
- Start date
"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.

Even if she has high IL, we guys risk talking to her answering machine... which is no good at all. And we risk to be tempted to be like "all normal nice guys" and leave her a messsage...
I remember some guy asked her a woman he just met:
He: I've called you 3 times.. why didn't you pick up teh phone?
She: I dont answer the phone if I dont know who is it.
He: But you gave me your number, right? If you dont answer the phone if you dont know who is it, then you would never answer me calls!
Chicks logic is illogical, but it is very beneficial to them: they test guys, they wanna see how AFC you are....

So I replied to her email the next day, just some basic c/f, and . . . nothing.
That makes two women in the past two months where we met, had an "instadate," exchange one email, and that's it. Both were 5's. Both were language students/teachers.
Weird.

Lets see: she emailed you? Yes. She showed some interest? Yes.
You replied back with some decent c&f? yes.
Now... what is goign to happen? You dont think she is going to email you again and ask you out, do you?
Women usually put this "burden" on men as far as I remember.
From my personal experience - even very interested women would never ask me out. They show all kind of sings of interests.. yes. But to ask a guy out they consider "too much".

I didn't expect her to ask me out. Just reply to the 2nd email. As in a normal conversation.
Anyway, maybe she figured I wasn't interested since I didn't set up another date right away. But clearly she wasn't that interested, either.

"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.

Lets look at the dynamics: you met her in real life, not online.Originally posted by iveyleeger

Does she remember that? Yes.
Then you talked online? Yes.
Now does she still remember that you are not an online guy?
I think so. That means she sees online talk not as a normal conevrsation. She sees it as if you are loosing interests, ie. your IL is falling...Sure she wont chase you since she is an "innocent girl", that's guy's responsibility to be proactive...
One email is definitely fine, but when you didn't suggest anything in terms of tegging together second time... she "sensed" your falling IL in her.
Though it is possible she'll reply later.

That makes sense. I also made her wait 4 days for the first email. So what would the better thing to have done be?
