"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 was just wondering if this is how you DJs here on this board act around women like those guys on the show? Some guys are just way to aggressive I think

There was this one date when this guy was talking to this chick in a van alone by themselves.. I was observing her body language. Couple things I noticed:

1. She was playing with her hair
2. Legs crossed

Since she was playing with her hair, I predicted that she wasn't going to next him.. BUT she ended up nexting him!

So my questions:

1. Is dating supposed to be like this? (ive never been on one)

2. Is this how you guys act around women? (just curious, im sure you don't have to be always loud and aggressive like these guys)
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

i've never seen it.

i would not learn how to conduct dates from TV shows. read the DJ bible. work up the balls to talk to women and ask them out (this is key pretty much). and read up on how to act on dates.

MTV has ruined two generations of promising teenagers. They should pull that whole network off the friggin air.

As I know it, playing with ur hair, touching ur ear or any other part of the face means u are not serious (or maybe honest).
And about the legs....girls always have their legs crossed, but if they are open to conversation and like the guy, they keep their legs facing the guy ( i hope u understand because I don't knopw how to say this the right way in english)

Blind date is the most realistic but I like Elimidate, its more entertaining to watch, NEXT is a joke!
 

"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.

When girls play with their hair theyre probably interested to some extent.

Anyway, do you honestly think because MTV has a dating SHOW that is 110% retarded that its like that in the real world. Its a SHOW on MTV, im guessing you didnt see how they responded when the got rejected. That show is a joke.

I like Blind Date because you can pick up some tips on that show. Another thing I've noticed on that show that even if that guy is gorgeous they won't always have a 2nd date with him.

I used to like Elimidate but not anymore. All the contestasts try to find flaw in others and point it out as much as they can. Its just a lot of unneeded fighting going back and forth, not much date stuff going on.

It is also obvious that NEXT is very scripted so its hard to watch.
 

"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.

All reality shows are scripted. Some more than others.

The writers, producers or whoever understand that people enjoy the suffering of others. There may not be an actual script but I bet cast members get plenty of input from those in charge.

Before long there will be biographies, books, and probably lawsuits from participants stating how screwed up in the head there are because of fvcking reality television.
