"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.

How do you get rid of the need/want to impress women?

This really clouds my judgment, like in business. Like for example, I find myself wanting (take note: I didn't do it yet) to talk business with my people on phone while a chick that is sort of my type is beside me, when I'd rather not do it when I'm with other people, for example, my friends.

This is really stupid. Come to think of it. There are people that will only have to breathe in order to make as much as I'm making within a year. It also makes me anxious on wanting to make money sooner. Like really man, this is stupid.

I don't want to impress anybody, at least not women. I just want to hold myself with a poise out of something that comes from within. Not money. Not wealth. Not women. Something noble and truly honorable or something.

What can you say guys?

Thanks.
 

"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.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to impress women, but you need to do it in a way that's attractive to her. If you've got a kickass personality and a great sense of humour, that's what you use to impress her.

Actually, "impress" is a lousy word to use. "Attract" would be more suitable.

Actually -- and I don't even know what you'll think of this -- but I don't even want to want to attract women.

trying to be flashy will only attract a cetain type of woman, cars, clothes phones only can do so much, being a secure confident man with the success you have is what will obtain women.

Yeah but the problem with the success we have is that it could end, be forgotten, or even belittled. It looks to me that it's no different than taking your confidence from your success with women. I mean life is a journey, a life of working, rather than a life of acquiring.
you have to learn not to let that bother you, not everything lasts forever, if you have good investments and are finacially set you wont have to worry, you can live off of your previous success
