"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 yawning pits of hell
Last night a few friends and I went to a girl's house last night. I knew already knew who she was and was kinda excited about going over there.

We got there, and her along with 3 other girls and another guy were chilling out back. I thought I was gonna be the main pimp, don juan, womanizer of the get together. Unfortunately, with 5 other guys and 3 girls it's going to be somewhat hard to stand out especially if you aren't exactly the best with girls.

We were chilling and talking and I managed to introduce myself to the girls I didn't know. They were all friendly to me. And I struck up good convo's with the prettier one of the girls I didn't know previously. I held the eye contact, smiled, mirrored, and asked questions. It seemed to help because later on through the night she would hold eye contact with me when I caught her glancing over my way. Unfortunately one of the other guys was being somewhat protective of this girl so I didn't try and get in any conflicts over a girl.

We chilled, talked, and basically turned it into a little party.

My friends were on ecstacy and so were horny and reminded me of dogs starving for the attention of the owner. Two of the guys were trying hard to seduce the girl or something. I could tell she was getting bored of the guys.

Unfortunately I'm a shy dude at times and when the two guys were trying with the girl, I felt awkward trying to do anything. I guess that was my mistake. Of course, we traded flirtatious smiles and eye contact, but she was constantly swarmed. What should I have done?

After a while, I got bored so I went outside and smoked lots of weed and then a girl or two came out and gave me company for a second until 3 dudes come out and ruin the chances.

Afterwards, I realized that my chance for any ***** went down the drain because 13 other guys showed up and it was a total sausage party. I would have left but my buddies were trying to have fun and so I waited for them.


After a few minutes of chatting with the guys that came, my friends and some other dudes went to the store to get cigarettes and when they were gone I chatted up the girls and then the girl got tired of having my friends around and asked if I could take them home, and I insisted. That party sucked and I was waiting for her to kick us out or something. She asked why I was so quiet and didn't talk to her very much and blah blah blah. But I did get her number and she wanted mines and I gave it to her, and I guess they want me to come by sometime. Maybe I will, maybe I won't.

For some reason I was a lot more quiet than usual. I guess it was the girls or something. I probably need to work on opening up and being more alive. I was quiet all night just about but I always had my calm. I need to work on socializing better.

Also, do you guys think it's worth the effort trying to seduce a girl who already has 2-3 guys on her like flies?

Should I call the girls?

If I go over again, should I only bring a few guys?

What would you do in a situation like mines?

I don't know. I don't come on this site often, and I thought I had the game handled from ignorantly reading some posts on here but, yesterday was a total trip out for me. This morning when I woke up, I felt tripped out, warped, a sense of confusion, a dab of failure, and a little sense of disgrace to Don Juans all around...

Please give me suggestions or advice on such a situation because I'm seriously going to have to do some spring cleaning when it comes to my game and life overall because I'm truly tired of living a life without girls, a life that has been stationary. It's time for a change, especially because school's almost here.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Don't let this get you down, these things happen. Use it as a learning experience. It sounds like you were too worried about the other guys being there and not focused enough on going for what you wanted. Next time try to be more positive and talkative.

It does sound like you got some interest from these girls, and I see no reason not to call them. You've got nothing to lose.

lol. Post is too long... So let me give you advice I really do hope applies to you. But frankly, I have no idea what is appropriate since I'm too much of a dumb****. Gee... Now that I think about it... Why did I even click on this thread?

Anyways, what do you mean is it even worth it? there is alot LESS work to do in that situation than in a normal one. You set your 1st impression and regardless of how that looked, the girls hold you higher than the other guys.

Pursue this. Go over, don't bring friends. Don't go in for the kill without wounding the beast first. Patience is the difference between glorious success and failure.

wounding the beast?


Overall I need to open my mouth and say something. Like mouth and mind won't do anything sometimes in such a situations and environments. The funny thing is that once I've actually said something or started a convo, I sort of come alive again I guess.,...
 

"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.
