Do you guys think that this classic book would help with dating? Personally, I believe that it would definitely open a lot of legs if applied properly.....
"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.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

It would have worked well back in the day when it was written, but today it only applies to dealing with men.
If you apply it to your dealings with today's women they will generally walk all over you. It's the epitome of "nice guy" which translates in their twisted minds to "weak guy".

I feel that the principles in that book are truly timeless, and that they work even more now than back when the book was originally published. Today, we are FAR less interpersonal than we were in the 1930's, due to technology. Outside of talking on a phone, most people had to meet face-to-face back then in order to communicate. Now, the average person can communicate in a variety of different ways. We are constantly distracted and increasingly self-centered. So, when you meet that rare person, who really makes you feel special, focuses on your problems and needs with no strings attached, it gives you a huge edge, in my opinion....
