"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.

Interesting Men's Health Article May Explain Why Big Butt Women Are Superficial

I recently subscribed to Men's Health Magazine and in this month's issue, (page 44, with Derek Jeter on the cover) an article stated that athletic/slimmer women are less superficial than their curvaceous counterparts because curvaceous women have more estrogen than slimmer women and as a result, their genes are programmed to seek out prospective mates who they think could help produce "stronger babies." I laughed out loud like crazy while reading it because it made me recall my very skinny days before I began lifting weights and would be making moves on all these super big booty women who tended to come up with any excuse possible to say "no" to me. And now all of a sudden, those same kinds of women who under normal circumstances wouldn't give me the time of day seem to be paying attention to and noticing me. People are shamefully shallow and superficial but hey, what can we do? That's life.
 

"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've gotta read that article. I'm curious whether it'll point out any reasons why I seem to only go after athletic women and the women with the double-wide kadunk-kadunks.

Re:

The article only gave it from the perspective of women who supposedly fit that description.

Well that sucks. It still sounds like an interesting read though.
