"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.

OK this question isn't aimed at ultimately 'hooking up with' any female friend, but it is something that has just been plain bugging me and has got me stumped.

I have a bunch of friends, males and females. Now having both genders in a group of friends, there's often hugs etc. exchanged, completely friendly. It's also common for small jokes to be exchanged such as 'come to bed with me <name> ;)' and it's all fun and well.

BUT, the thing is, i'm basically the one person who has never been asked for a hug from any of the females.... and the playful jokes are never directed towards me. Don't get me wrong, I have fun with all female friends and we get along well, it's just in these small situations I wonder why I am left out.

I just don't understand... i'm not an intimidating guy, i get along with everyone great, and it's not like i come off as 'creepy' to them because, to be quite honest, I have no interest in any of them any further than friends.

Example: if GirlA is laying on couch, she may just put her legs across someone who wants to sit there, so she stills gets to lay etc. But it's almost guaranteed that she'll sit up when i'm on it, and not interfere with my space. She'll also most likely move her stuff for me and be like "don't mind all my crap" etc.

Any ideas on why this could be? This isn't a big deal on it's own, but I figure if , for example, i'm walking around with a "don't touch me or i'll kill you" look on my face, then it will extend to women i'm actually interested in and that's no good.
 

"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.

They are just not as comfortable with you, or on the same level as they are with the other guys. They are probably afraid to do that because they don't know if you would be cool with it.....

it could be you are lacking sex appeal for these babes to molest you like they are doing to your other friends. Increase that and see what happens

like the first person said. they arent comfortable with you yet because they dont know if your ok with that kind of stuff. just start kinoing more and do other things and eventually build up to it. try spending more time with them, even if its just you 2 and eventually they will be comfortable enough to do that stuff
