"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.

Here is the story again, last semester I found a girl in school, she became my fb. I had a roommate, which made it hard for me to take her home all the time. We both agreed that next semester would be awesome because I had a single room. I became attached. I caught her making out with another guy (better looking than me). I end it and she becomes his fb. This whole situation played a terrible effect on my mind and body when school was out. Further more it effected me enough that I failed a course. Now I am back at school, I have a single room no girl and I learn that her new fb and the girl lives in the same building, both with single rooms! To makes matters worse she passed the class while I fell behind. I'm here back at school and I feel like a hermit. I am too scared to talk to my friends because they are friends with her new fb. I am too afraid to walk around, fearing that I might see the girl or her new fb. I feel like I have lost all hope in life. Can please someone help?
 

"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.

Don't catch feelings for jump offs. Know your priorities. School and money is always before girls.

CALM DOWN.. You really let this WH@RE go to your head!! Dont be afraid of your friends or the HO you were fvcking. Just be friendly if you run into her. Act like you dont care. FORGET about her. YOU are more important.

I'm still looking
You don't care about the girl, you feel bad for being rejected.

Find a new girl, you'll forget the name of the one you lost.

Jesus... it's only a fb. Calm down.

When people get a fb, they have to realize what it is. It's only meant to be on a superficial, physical level.

She's caught making out with some other guy, so what? She is not your girlfriend. She's just a girl you bang.



Girlfriend =/= FB
 

"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.

Start talking to new people, and your old friends. Start connecting again.

Don't let one silly, non-significant girl dictate who you can and can't be friends with.


Start feeling good about yourself. Wake up every morning and say, "I FEEL FUXING GREAT!"

Cheesy? Perhaps. It works though. It's all in the mentality and your emotions. Starting off the day without doom and gloom changes your mindset so much.

I would try to live again... think back to how life was before you met this chic. She's just a chic, and there are MANY more out there waiting to be deflowered by you, but you have to live and not be a hermit.

Never take a chic in college serious, because they only want to get wasted and get facials. As a man, your ego was hit a little bit when you found that she made-out with another guy and started f'kn him. That's okay, because just how she up and did that, you can up and do the same thing. Just live again. Your ego needs it's vengeance. But not revenge on her. Go out this weekend.

HA!

And to the OP, if you let some random ho fvck up your life, then you are putting way too much importance on relationships. This wasn't even a serious relationship. If you had a long-term girlfriend who broke up with you, are you going to let that destroy you? Until your mindframe changes regarding women, I think you will.

Or maybe it's more about how you regard your own self-value as a single guy versus when you were getting laid. Believe it or not, you're still the same person, with or without a girl.

thanks guys, I know it AFC behavior but, its just hard getting over her and seeing her happy with some other guy, like today when they were holding hands.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
