"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.

Yes this belongs in the HS forum, but it's empty. So here I am.

The girl that I've been seeing recently - not a gf - likes it when I make use of my fingers, and while we were 'watching' a movie at my house a few days ago I started to rub on the outside of her pants, which she really liked. I began to slide my fingers underneath her pants, when she grabbed my wrist, and said softly, "no..." to which I responded "why?" She said "your parents are downstairs", and they were, but in no position to hear anything. Regardless, I stopped.

My question is, should I have tried to go again, and whispered in her ear "it's no big deal" or something? Was this a situation where "no" really meant "no"?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

She might of been on her period? Chicks usually dig the excitement of possibly being 'caught'. 'No' sometimes just means try harder. Try sucking/biting her neck next time she says 'no' then try again, be persistent, but don't push too hard.

It's all right........ if u have a good time!
I would've given no response except to continue or said it's no big deal and continued.

That said I really can't figure out whether it was token or real resistance from what you've posted, it could easily have been the case that she simply wanted you to stop and used that excuse instead of flat out telling you that you were annoying her

I think you should have tried again. If you get three no's then stop, but sometimes the no is automatic.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

"No" usually means keep doing what you were doing before for a little longer and try me again in 2 minutes or so.

Obviously if you get more than 2-3 no's, or if she sounds at all pissed off, it actually means no.

You should have taken off your pants and seen what happened. Then you would have known if no meant no.
