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.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
I met a friend of my friends who married this woman in Everquest, then moved from Cali to Florida to marry her in real life. He was 19 she was about mid 30's.Originally posted by So pimp its scary
Funny, I've also heard of people 'marrying' two Everquest characters. If I was playing the game, and came across a freakin' wedding, I'd start hacking away at the bride... or the groom, whichever is uglier.
lol

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

...when ever i hear someone i know talking aobut RPG's im like "WHAT!! you have a rocket propeled grenade?!?! what the fcuk you doing with that!"![]()
yeah defintly, then you get those who are so 'into' the game that if you ask them what they have been up to they start describing the things going on in the game, asuming you understand they are talking aobut the game!Originally posted by cant think of a user name
Whenever I hear some guys talk about stuff like that in public (eg. "I destroyed his kingdom and stole his money" or "I killed him last night then took his castle"), it just sounds bizarre. Especially if a police officer is nearby.
