"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 well do you reckon this would go down?

Hi All. (first post)
I know I should go try this myself but I have pretty bad Social Anxiety & Depression so Im hoping you guys could give me a guess as to how this would work out with a chick who works at the gym who is about a 7.5

Me: "Hi how ya doing?"
Her: "Good how are you?"
Me: "Not bad but ive been doing heaps of cardio latley and Im starting to get this RASH IN BETWEEN MY LEGS!! (said with high energy and a bit of a cheeky grin)

I think its kind of funny, but I dunno. When your depressed you got nothing to say to knowone.
 

"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.

That sounds just a bit weird, man.

Little chance of that working.

About the anxiety/depression, sad to hear it, read up the inspirational life view posts in the DJ Bible, top right.

don't be depressed, life is good.

Why don't you just try and have a normal conversation? If she doesn't know you then she wouldn't know if you're joking or not and you'll come across as a weird freak.

That's very weird. Youd have more luck telling her you are suffering incontinence!

Forget trying to be clever or funny and just be yourself dude.

Me: "Hi how ya doing?"
Her: "Good how are you?"
Me: "I'm good thanks. I've seen you around quite a lot. How long have you been working here?"

And from here you can progress into a natural conversation. Enquire about her job, show an interest and get to know her.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Yeah, that... that wouldn't go down well at all. Points for being willing to try, though. The problem with your response is twofold. First, it's divulging too much information, of a rather private nature, way too soon. Nobody needs to hear about that sort of stuff.

And for the guy who advocated "just have a normal conversation", screw you. As far as you know, that's exactly what the poster is trying.

Hehehe ok thanks guys.
Yeah I kind of came up with that line when I was reading something about how if you just put your balls on the line it helps Social Anxiety. Also it conveys I just dont give a ****. I look good but also look pretty intimidating, I think thats why I come up with jokes about myself (& I hate arrogant people). And yeah Ive pretty much given up on drugs (they helped for a little while) so I gotta try something new. This is another one I came up with (Mainly for your amusement.)

Setting = {Gym: I sweat allot & sometimes after HEAPS of cardio I get a wet patch around my croch like I peed my pants} So Id say.
Me: "Hey Tanya I had an accident" (pointing to my croch, & said in a whiney voice with a smile)
Her: (hopefully something like) "Aww no, better bring your nappy next time."
Me: "Nah pullups.. Im a big boy now." (pull ups are nappy boxer short things for young people being toilet trained)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Me: "Hi how ya doing?"
Her: "Good how are you?"
Me: "I'm good thanks. I've seen you around quite a lot. How long have you been working here?"

I might try that actually, but I really want something original / random and not so boring to say.
If I wanted some examples what should I search for on this board. Routine / Opener / Line.... anything else?

Um...
Okay, I see what you're getting at here. But you're doing it in such a way as to put yourself down. Instead, try something goofy and memorable that doesn't put yourself down. Here's an example I pulled off of fastseduction a while ago, I think it fits the bill.
http://www.fastseduction.com/masf/16/320287/
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

Yeah thats not bad Ill try and think of more stuff where the joke isn't on me.
Some of my favourite comedians make jokes about themselves all the time, but then they often joke about how they dont get laid much.
Chicks get attracked to the dumbest ****ing things though. Theres a fine line between confidence and arrogance.
There intrested on the dumbest things to like reality TV shows, pop-culture celebrity gosip etc. I despize those things. They literally make me quiver in discust.
But eh, guys arn't perfect, & theres probably a few cool chick out there.

Take it from me. I'm excellent at C&F. The worst thing you can do is give a woman a disgusting visual. It will turn her off directly. You want a woman to visualize you sexually. Anything you do to block this potential kills it.

I loved abcd_z mime lines. Women love random silly fun nonsense with that ****y edge. It doesn't have to be gross.
