"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.

Hey guys, friends setting me up with some women in a new town for me,

only thing is I'm totally new to the area and not such a well accomplished DJ able to adapt to all situations yet, this being one of them.

Basically, I'm in this new town for a month, arrived 3 days ago and don't know where anything fun is so I'm somewhat out of ideas. First meeting i guess I could go for the usual coffee/lunch/ whatever ... hmmm, should be interesting to see how things go i guess. In the long run, this would be something similar to a cold approach+date?

Never was a big fan of the cold approach ...

Ideas would be welcome,
cheers guys.
 

"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.

You can use this as a perfect opportunity to expand your skills.

It is when you're out of your comfort zone that you grow the most so f*ck getting set up by your friends.... that leads nowhere, but reliance on your friends to set you up.

Instead, ask yourself: what is it that you don't like about the cold approach?

Most of my approaches have always been somewhat 'cold'. I moved towns for uni, etc. Completely new settings. So I'm not a stranger to the concept, I've just grown used to 'knowing,' what will happen, comfort in the settings/environment i had made.

I didn't ask my friend to set me up, he just did it for me, and hey, why not take the opportunity anyway, I've never had a friend set me up before so i figure it'll be interesting. But, again, it feels completely new for some strange reason, hence my reaction.

Getting set up is not the ideal situation because it makes a woman wonder why you can't get women on your own. But in this case, being the new kid in town, I don't see anything wrong with it. You might meet someone you like, and it's a great opportunity to practice. She'll probably ask you about your life back home, so have something in mind to say that doesn't make you sound too pathetic :)
