Out of curiosity, were you in Vegas for the CES last week?ketostix said:Yeah last time I was in a casino in vegas all the hookers looked liked cute, young normal girls..
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 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.
I wasn't stating that he was a guy in the community, I'm saying it shouldn't be a surprise that an old man can get hot chicks too. The fact that your surprised about it is showing that your still caught up in thinking about the superficial stuff.My Name is Nobody said:He didn't read sh!t. He was in crappy clothes, crappy hair, crappy greasy look like he didn't shower in a week. Nothing DJ about that now is there? That's on top of the age thing.

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 don't care I was just thinking about it and decided to make a thread about it. Then it occurred to me she was likely an escort. It didn't hit me at the bar because she was in jeans and I have never seen an escort wear normal clothing.AFC Savior said:money

Maybe hookers are people too.ketostix said:Yeah last time I was in a casino in vegas all the hookers looked liked cute, young normal girls..
I bet you're one of those asshats that likes to spit in Ferraris too.DJVladdy said:man if that bothers you just catch him alone and beat the **** out of him. That's it, not that difficult.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
Always a good idea man!My Name is Nobody said:No he didn't look interested in talking to me at all. He kept looking over at me but not in a friendly way. These people around here have guns in their pocket. I mind my own business.
This is just so classic.DJVladdy said:.... But When somebody has something - that i deserve more than he does......
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
