Mistic
Senior Don Juan
Nothing more to say it's all in the title
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.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

if you were meeting asmany women as you can and spinning some plates, you would never think this stupid crap !
Or, you have nailed so many girls that it is no longer a fun challenge, and it's funnier to make post like this on a site where most guys are desperately trying to get laid.kingsam said:Upside i have corrected your post!

OP you need to meet some real women not the fantasy ones!
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
what he said... i wonder why i only bother to look in the health section these days man... sh*tScion said:The **** is wrong with u?
I will just let you hang yourselfBible_Belt said:I think it's funny that people are creeped out by sex with a cousin. People have been fvcking their cousins for all of human history. My ex-wife had two cousins who even got married...and they are from a wealthy high-society family, believe it or not. They don't have kids, but the kids would probably be fine even if they did. The risk of birth defects goes up from about 1:1000 to about 1:100 with two cousins. With brother and sister it is about 1:10. Kings and queens have been inbred this way for all of history.
Whatever the sex combination, there are people who get off on it. Whatever is taboo will turn somebody on. There are grandmas out there who get gangbanged by all the men in the family at once...and some who work the family dog into the party. Sex with a cousin is not big deal next to 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.

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.
