"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.

So this woman gave me her number, i called her about 2 or 3 times and she didint call me back. which kind of was weird to me because she is very flirty, and shows the "signs". So today i just camout and said something like

"so how come you havent gone out with me yet, ive asked like 3 times" she had a look on her face that was so funny. she got a phone call (we are radio djs - disc jockeys) then i waited to see who spoke first...SHE did so she told me she was sorry but she was very busy but next week she will be free..
before leaving i told her im going to take her up on that offer for going out to lunch next week..
so.. do you think i played this well?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Hey what's up! I'm a apprentice DJ, and I got to say that men, you sound desperate toward that girl. If she cancel the next date (or report it whatever), it's because I majorly think that it's because you turn her off (i've done the same, we've all done the same mistake and gotten the same result)

I'm assuming she will flake - did you call her and leave messages 3 times or just try to call her 3 times? If its the former then you should take a look at that behaviour and fast.

You are one desperate mofo.
Don't bother with her at all. If she makes an offer fair enough. But other then that, don't bother mate.
 

"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.

Im against calling out a girl. Honestly what does it gain you? You think you 'won" but in the end your not tapping her ass and she thinks your a loser and so do all her friends.

seems to me you came across as too desperate and needy...I wouldnt bother with this girl anymore...just next her and learn from your mistake...if you think about it you learned something so its no big deal...think about how you can do things diffrently when it comes to the next girl

There are always two ways to look at this.

1.) You gave her a chance.. if she doesn't reciprocate then NEXT her
2.) She is a woman.. you are the man.. you need to lead which means you need to "Make the HO say NO" LOL

So I guess if you were taking option 1 then stop and move on. If you are going option two then be very direct and make her say no. Mind you if you can't get her on the phone etc. and you've tried a couple of times see option 1. :D

"so how come you havent gone out with me yet, ive asked like 3 times" she had a look on her face that was so funny.
and you wondered why she had the funny look on her face.

well, funny look = wow, he's that desperate.

stop bugging her to go out with you. that's childish.

you like...wil not leave her alone till she shuts you up and agrees to go out with you.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Called her 3 times did you?

Desperation is a sticky cologne.
