"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.

I just stopped at Winchell's and ate 4 donuts back to back. I couldn't resist. Damn, and I was doing so great lately!
 

"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.

Don't know about other guys, but it's necessary that I allow myself to eat some real shyt once in a while. I don't have too many bad cravings...I have no sweet tooth at all. But when it comes to French Fries :nervous: I let myself eat one order a week, and in that way it's easier to resist them during the week if they are offered to me. I am comforted knowing that I can have some fries on Friday or whenever. I really think when it comes to disciplining your diet, you need an occassional "exhaust valve" in order to avoid massive, cataclysmic dietary eruptions. ie, eating 4 donuts in one sitting WTF???
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I wouldnt sweat it, I doubt 4 donuts would make such a big difference in the long run, you will burn them off in a day or two!

You should have one day a week where you eat the foods you enjoy. That way you won't get in a rut and go out and binge on doughnuts.

Psychological tricks are for p*ssies.


You shouldn't be craving foods if you are getting appropriate nutrients.
