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 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.
Are you guys really that scared? You think a close is that hard?Originally posted by Soprano
is anyone else watching this episode? its about someone trying to pick up a girl who got murdered lol... they're talking about "neg hits" and "closes" and etc...
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
wow.. i was just wondering if anyone else saw it...Originally posted by ethnomethodologist

A girl says I had sex with the guy, a guy says I had sex with her, some guy from CSI says he sex closed the girl, some afc says he kiss closed her. Seriously "whats a matter for you" with that?
A guy says neg hits on CSI, what did you call it before? Teasing? People around the world MIGHT just take his idea up on his offer, and you'll already know the science behind a "neg-hit" and the history, before anybody else did, use that to your advantage. I wouldn't say I would even bother though, trying to sound smart and talking neg-hits, kino, C+F in front of girls is getting old to me again, it's like they don't want to hear it. They want to to hear what they've been hearing their whole life, with just a little bit more fun involved. Start talking science to them, and they will call you a geek, start worrying that other people will get angry, they can do a search for "how to tease" on the internet and find a link to sosuave.com, than they can pop in here, and we'll have a brand new afc to deal with... is that what you are really afraid of? Another person crawling down the rabbit hole?
I am really confused, is this actually supposed to be a problem to you, more people understanding something you know about? Just means, you can be that much more unique, by pretending, or joking about neg-hitting.
How bout you bach neg-hits, and bash closing for a little while. Get a leg up, as the competition, see if you can tease us into convincing you that sleeping with us is actually a good idea and not a good idea. GAHD, another rant.
G'bye I go sleep and shut up now.
I never saw it. I want to now though, too bad I probably never will since I haven't watched TV for more than 5 minutes in ike 4 months.Originally posted by Soprano
