"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 met a girl at my local mcdonalds. was in the drive through. i've seen her there before and she told a friend of my brothers that she thought i was sexy (i was sitting right there so i heard it too). anyway, i saw her today she said hi and smiled when i pulled up, mind you i've never even really spoken to this girl and she was greeting me like we knew eachother. so i figured why not find out her name. i asked her name and she started giggling and what not, told me her name and wants to start a conversation (still in the drivethrough with cars behind me) so i sat and talked to her for about a minute, found out how old she is and where she lives, told her she had a pretty smile and she turned bright red. then i decided i needed to go(my food was getting cold) , so i told her id come back to see her sometime. then it dawned on me as i was pulling off that i could have gotten her phone number so as im pulling off, while i could still see her in my window, i say to her "ill be back for your phone number too". she says "ok" and i pulled off.

anyone think not getting her number right away was a huge mistake? like when i go back and see her do you think i could still get it? im still new at talking to girls that i dont know so any help would be greatly appreciated. id like to think that i left on a high note, she seemed like she was upset that i was leaving. although i did forget to ask whether or not she had a boyfriend. just one more thing to ask her next time i see her.

Reppin' that 860 in Hartford, CT!
What I would have done is gone into the store and told her that she forgot to give me her number. But it's not a mistake, chances are, it's going to make her WANT to give you her number.:up:

great, now once i actually get her number, since i dont really know her yet, i was thinking id call her either that night or the following night and talk for a bit see if she wants to hang out. i've gotta be honest tho. its not uncommon for a girl to be hit on in the drive through window so would it be creepy to even think anything of this?

"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 don't think you should have added that "I'll be back for your number too" part, but that's just my opinion. The next time you see her ask her for her number. You don't want to make it seem like you were that desperate for her number though, act like getting her number was simply part of your day.

i dont think it made me seem desperate and she responded well to it so now i at least know that she is willing to give it to me. i practically asked for it right there, just didnt get it at that point and time because i was kinda hungry and wasnt thinking

who cares haha..she said she was going to give you her number...now get it whenever it's convenient..but don't intentionally not go for a certain period of time..

^ Exactly my thoughts.It doesnt really matter if you told her youll be back for her number.Guys on this forum will disagree saying its DLV or what not,but who gives a rats ass?Youll be back for her number then youll be able to get the mack down going on dont worry about it.

ok well i got her number, now i plan on calling her this weekend to set up a date. problem is i haven't the slightest clue as to what to do. i was thinking i would call her up with something like "hey i was thinking, we should go hangout this weekend and get to know eachother a lil bit". and maybe go for a walk and get some icecream or something. anyone have any date ideas?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

'm pretty sure theres a forum on this somewhere..it was sexy..you should search it..but usually first dates should have some action...talking is fine but you dont want to sit and talk all day because you will probably have silent moments..and you don't want to tell her everything about you right away..remain a mystery for a bit....maybe mini golf or bowling and talking while you do that...zoo..museum..aquarium..botanical garden..fishing...some activity so you dont have to worry about tlaking every single second
