"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.

I watched this movie Chloe the other night and a few things stood out.

here is the trailer.

My roommate rented it for the lesbian scene he heard about.The ending was mediocre, the story was pretty predictable. But the lessons in it was pretty interesting. It's billed as romantic thriller, but its not. It's a deconstruction of the aging woman's psyche.

The first thing that stood out to me is that this woman while smart and accomplished is still a woman, with a woman's needs. It shows the true nature of game laid bare. It shows aging women and their fears once they hit the wall. In a very telling quote she tells her husband, you keep getting brighter and better and I'm just getting, old. It's like I'm invisible. It also shows that women both hate and love the fact that other women want you. Pre selection is golden. They may act out against it, play games, and manipulate but they would rather act out against a man with options than settle for a man with none. As Roissy says, 5 minutes of alpha is worth more than a lifetime of beta.
 

"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.
