"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.

I'm looking for some good day2 ideas for weeknights. IDEALLY, some of them would be alcohol-free (e.g. not rely on going to a bar) since I am borderline alcoholic and am trying to cut wayyy back.

I've read some stuff about hanging out at the mall, trying stuff on, joking around, then maybe grabbing a bite to eat, and I'm wondering if in your experience this works with girls of age mid to late 20s. I mean the mall seems so juvenile?

Keys to a day2 seem to be,

- you have a PLAN but can make it look effortless
- PLENTY of venue changes (like, not stay in a venue more than 60-90 min)
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Invite her to your place, watch a DVD...maybe make some food if you're any good.

Out? Play pool, go bowling, even mini-golf isn't TOO childish. If you're gonna go to a restaurant, try to go someplace other than your typical boring sit-down place. For example, there's this Japanese steakhouse near where I live where they prepare the food in front of you, complete with ninja-spatula-twirling, etc...

Picnics, maybe...the zoo?

Or go on a trip to the beach or something. Just think a little...what's fun for YOU? What do you see yourself doing with this girl if you end up spending any real time together? (Besides THAT :D )

Good suggestions. (Highlighted portion is called tepanyaki). I would throw in getting some ice cream and a stroll around a park (it brings back memories of youth). Also, Sushi is a great idea.
