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.

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.
I don't know man. There would constantly be new and different women to bang. I can never see myself losing interest in movies, because I f'ing LOVE them. And they're always making new and interesting movies. I think it would be pretty damn cool to have the chance to plow through all sorts of different chicks spanning four centuries.horaholic said:
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
I think you'd benefit from getting some fangs, it'd work really well as an ice-breaker when approaching because NOTHING says "we'll get along just fine" Like sinking your teeth 4 inches into her neck. I'm glad you've seen the light and realised becoming a vampire is the true way to get into any girl's pants. Don Juan-Don Shwan, nothing screams super-suave like a pale faced, darkness dwelling bloodsucker!underoath777 said:
