"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.

Do you think a great pickup line is to ask a gal you meet at the pub to come back to your place and play video games?

I was reading this and it got me interested:
It would kind of piss me off.
Not really, but kinda, in a way that made me shake my head and laugh while thinking:
“Really?”
My buddy Mike and I used to frequent a bar that was walking distance from our house. We would spend at least one weekend evening (but usually two) at this bar drinking into the wee hours.
Now, Mike was a handsome enough guy. Very nice, humble, friendly, and confident enough, too. He was a good conversationalist. But nothing about this guy would strike him to anyone as a pick-up artist.
And yet, somehow, he punched way above his weight; he would rack up some serious numbers with the ladies- Master Panty Dropper.

How?
He would just start talking with a girl at the bar. There were no slick lines. No practiced scrunchy face handsome look that made her melt.
It was usually, later in the night, just a simple: “Want to go to my house and play some Wii Tennis?”
Yup. You heard that right.
Wii. ****ing. Tennis.


On many occasions, I’d walk home, and there he’d be in the living room with a new lady friend. One remote in his hand- One remote in hers.
Swinging away with the remotes like they were playing tennis.
Sometimes a gal would even just have her bra top on. (He swears it was never “Strip Wii Tennis” to my inquiries. “She just took it off” apparently.)
They’d both be laughing. Swinging away. Sometimes even sweating from their efforts. They’d usually have a beer in their other hand, playing best 2 out of 3, 3 out of 5 and so on.
I’d smile, chug some water and head to my room.
Eventually, the moans of pleasure would emit from his bedroom some time after that.
(And then a bunch of guys jumped in their cars to go buy Nintendo Wiis.)
Nintendo - you owe me $1000 for this free commercial.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

The line itself is not critical. If she's attracted and DTF, you can use almost any reason to invite her back.

On business trips or vacations when I had a hotel room, my go to line was, "I'm gonna go relax for a while and watch some TV. You want to come up?"

In any of these, you aren't mentioning sex; so she can't really get OFFENDED at you propositioning her. But she's obviously smart enough to know what you really want. You'll get a yes or some polite excuse why not (as a no).

Now this guy is adding some potentially fun strip game to his video game playing idea. And it's a game that he is highly experienced at (and she isn't) so she will keep "losing" lol. That's very clever.

But the actual line you use at the bar doesn't matter too much. It's really just a formality.

For my first ONS from a club, the girl propositioned me. She said, "Are you ready to get out of here?" For a few seconds, I must have sperged out. I thought it meant that she wasn't have a good time, even though we were at the coolest club around lol. I think quickly realized what she meant and said, "Sure."
