"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 the hookup is becoming less popular because of hypergamy?

I was reading this and it got me thinking:

My contention follows from the fact that vehicles like Tinder and other online dating apps have made it so that there is such a plethora of choices for women that women are actually holding out for that Superman, and therefore are not interested in men who are less than that (i.e., virtually all men). Whereas just recently women took to these vehicles and submitted to an appreciable portion of men that were alpha males, the current schema is that with this plethora of choices, the minimum level for some man to achieve being Superman is so high that now the earlier band of alpha males are judged to not be alpha enough.

my opinion: In some ways this is good as women don't get on the c0ck carousel, and therefore will not have the problems associated with too much pre-marital slutting. The key is that these women would need to hit the expectations wall at some point before it is too late for this schema to be a net good.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

In some parts of the US I get a more responsiveness than others.
