"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

A couple months back I was referred through a link in someone's sig here to a post and thread from a guy, which detailed why some men are drawn to dangerous women, damaged goods, the walking wounded, etc. instead of stopping being stupid and going for balanced girls.

It was one of the best posts I've seen here, and since it was fairly unique it was even better. I really want to find it again. I've searched repeatedly with many terms and I can't find it.

So can anyone help me find it. It was a very large post, linked to in someone's signature here, may have been the authors, I don't recall.
 

"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.

Some guys/girls think that they can "fix" or "save" a person that they want to get with. Don't bother.

The post I'm looking for went far further and deeper than that. It gave 4 or 5 different motives behind the man who chases dangerous women. I'd cite you some examples from it, but I can't remember any; that's why I want to track it down again. I only remember I read it and it blew my mind, it nailed this topic so accurately. Not only was it theoretically applicable to myself, equipping me for the future, but more to the point it was realistically applicable to friends of mine who appear to suffer from it, and I wish to be able to clearly define their problem by being able to refer to the post once again.

Otherwise, I tend to come up against 'she's really hot though', when going over it with them, and can go no further.
