"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.

The idea of getting wrapped up with another cluster b scares the hell out of me. Not sure she is, but treading lightly.

Owe you guys down under some vegemite...
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Considering this is the same girl from your "Sexual History" thread, my advice would be to eject. This is kind of a similar situation to the advice I'd give to guys pining over an ex that they "want to get back" - It is always time and effort better spent developing new plates from a fresh perspective than trying to repair a failed LTR. This also holds true for trying to figure out the head games of some woman you're presently involved with. It's never worth the effort, and more often than not you're worse off having "fixed" it to accommodate her at the end of it all.

You're the PRIZE. She enters and participates in YOUR world, not the other way around. All this one has done since you began these threads is make every attempt, both covert and overt, to bring you into her frame and make herself the PRIZE. Tell her to go pound salt, and spin more plates.

Rollo,
Wouldn't a girl have to first understand that having the orbiters ARE a risk in losing the alpha guy?
Yeah, I think the problem is the feminist culture these days have indoctrinated a lot of women into believing that it is perfectly normal and acceptable to have male friends, and that any "boyfriend" who objects to this is jealous, insecure, and controlling.

A lot of girls think it's their right to have these orbiters, and that there is nothing wrong with it. They probably think it even makes them more desireable to other males (a kind of social proof) - that it shows she is well adjusted socially. In fact, they would probably think they were backward if they DIDN'T have the male friends.

Well, if there was any doubt before, we now know what these guys' intentions are. And yet she still chooses to spend time with them. I think there are getting to be too many red flags with this woman.
