"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.

I have a date to prom, and things are great there....no problems really.

The thing is, I have no idea how to effectively deal with questions from others. My date and I sit together in a class, and all the girls around us keep saying things like "awwww you two are so cute together" and "so are you two dating?" and "ARrocket has a crush" blah blah blah. I usually just ignore it, but apparently, I've been blushing every time. Curses...lol. This kind of thing has happened in the past, and I've used C&F to diffuse the situation, but with this girl...it doesn't seem right. You'll have to trust me on that one. How do you guys deal with this?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

You can always go over the top and declare, "yeah, we've already booked the chapel and have named our children." Then, roll your eyes and smile at her.

Just be honest. Are you two dating? Then say yes. If not, say no. This girl should be proud to show you off to her friends and not trying to keep things secret.
 

"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.

Someties to be funny is better then to be honest! :D

Just say something like: "Nah we two? We totaly hate each other." Sarcasticly and joking! And then mess with her (Poke, push, something).

Purple-Haze i'm stealing that one from you! :D

if you like this chick, but aren't actually going out yet... a killer move I have done is to put your arm around them, but say "who, this grossy? no WAY would I date HER!" while squeezing her in tight.

experience on the field will cure the blushing problem and unsureness of what to say. we really cannot give you any specific on advice on smart ass comments or such because it wont solve the root of the problem, you need to get to the stage where you think stuff out yourself and dont have a problem with being in such situations
