"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.

so this new girl started at my work and she's been very flirtatious, pressing up against me, grabbing my arm, tons of kino. She is training to be a boss in the company eventually so I'm like should I go for it. I got her number the other day we haven't worked together much recently but we do work together a lot after this week. I'm wondering how should I proceed?
 

"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.

Only if you don't give a flying eff about your job security. Go ahead, have at it.

well a normal job I would say you're right but people do hookup at my job. Bosses transfer out all the time so it's not like I'd be working with her for 10 years.

If you're spinning plates, just looking for a fling, etc its dangerous. If you plan on going full AFC and going slow, a lot of guys meet their wives at work.

Overall though, probably a really bad idea.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Same advice as Rex....stay away from office romance. Its is a loose loose situation. What happens when she is pissed off at you ...or you dump her cause she pissed you off...and you have to see her at work the next day? Can't people think beyond the next day and their d*ck? Only exception is if a company is soooooo big you work buildings away and never in contact with them at work.

how many women work at your job and how involved is she with them ?

you'd be very surprised at how quickly women can turn other women against you and in an office environment it can be toxic

if you must proceed

show extremely little - no interest in work , don't be cold but just don't give any indication your interested in her goods

make your move on a works night out after plenty of drinks

The thing I find about 'attractive' women in work is that the attraction arises from a) over-exposure to that one individual, hence ease of constant prolonged access and consequent familiarity and, b) under-exposure to other individuals, hence the one individual becomes 'the best of a bad bunch'.

Out in the wider world, that one individual in large external group, she'd likely fade in to the crowd. She would likely behave quite differently. People are generally more confident and comfortable personalities at work because they are familiar.

I currently have a stalker at work. Awww-Kwarrrd.
