"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.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Oh look, I found a prestigious list of writers.....who were a bit alternative.

Maybe someday you will make the list.
Lol. I'm already on a list.

Don't know why you hate on writers so much since you quote T.S. Eliot in your sig. Plus by dint of you expressing your thoughts to me via a computer you are by default a writer.

My translation of D'anger's post in bold:

Danger said:
Who is hating on writers? What masculine man wouldn't write poems for other men?

I was going to let this go and move on but that poem got to me so much I just had to have the last word. You know, like a woman.

I am so flattered by your obsession with me my tubby little friend. You have hurt me and undermined my fragile, feminine ego so much I just have to find a way to hurt you back. A picture of a random fat dude is the best insult I have.
There is nothing you can say to hurt me D'anger. I, the master wordsmith, am bulletproof to your words.

I have never met a poet who was not a raging reservoir of masculinity. !
There used to be:

Ted Hughes
Dylan Thomas
Hunter S Thompson
Charles Bukowski
Ernest Hemmingway
Christopher Marlowe
Lord Byron (Don Juan)
Sylvester Stallone
etc

It's considered gay to be a writer these days I agree. I will certainly do my best to put real men back on the writing map though.

Having said that lyricists such as:

Tupac
Ice Cube
Ice-T
Eminem
etc were the epitome of manliness so it depends who you're calling a writer.
