"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.

Basically I'm in middle management (I'm a team leader, supervising around 100 people). I regularly have review sessions with them, giving them feedback on how they can improve their work, give them some encouragement etc.

Until now, I've just pulled sh!t out my arse with no real idea on how to give structured constructive feedback. What I know, I've learned by watching others do it, and trying it for my own. Don't get me wrong, I know how to do it, but I'm just looking for some more "scientific" ways of doing it.

Any tips from more experienced posters regarding this would be much appreciated. Does any of you guys have any links/ebooks that cover this subject?
 

"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.

This is my opinion but



I like to say that whatever you see, hear, and know about the people you manage whether it be problems with performance, late to work, bad customer service, poor teamwork..

You take full responsibility as if you were the one who was worried about getting fired because of not performing, or lives 80 km away in heavy traffic trying to get to work in time, or just have a short temper in dealing with irate customers. I believe its you who has to look in yourself, and change yourself to correct any problems that maybe in your employees. I believe you have to ask God to forgive you and each and everyone of your employees one by one to forgive you for causing all the problems and issues in their lives and in their company, and how you can make things right.

Go ahead ask them what is on there mind, if they fear to be fired or let go, or issues with other employees, or not being paid enough, make things right. I would do this continuously weekly or monthly, cause there are always problems that rise up.


In a matter of weeks or month, I believe you'll see vast improvement and change. Start right now, you probably know half the problems of your employees.
