"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.

Is it possible to get AIDS through kissing?

When I mean kissing, I mean by sticking your tongues down each other's throats.

Got some love on the dance floor, and was just curious. She looked clean enough, even her sports car was spotless, but I have to question any chic who wants it as bad as she did, especially only after rubbing all up on me for a couple of songs.

Ok, I was a kinda drunk too, as she was, and in the parking lot, she wanted a bit of the ole in and out right there in her car. My buds wanted to join me but she said no, and she was serious about it too.

...but something just wasn't right.(?) ...it was way WAY too easy.
 

"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'm thinking the kissing part isn't where the problems would've happened...

Yes it is possible; although with minute probability. If there is a cut or source of blood in either of the mouth, the other can easily aquire the infection through that mean. I wouldn't worry so much about it since you both were drunk and alcohol is known to be wound healer :yes: as well as gem killer.

Right, I thought about that too. Another reason I asked is, I had been chewing gum, and rememberd biting my tongue, and even my lip at one point. I dunno? I'll get myself checked in a months just to be sure.

There has only been one recorded case in the history of the HIV virus, from 1984 until now of transmission from kissing.

Even if you had a cut, and she had a cut, the chances are very very small. HIV/AIDS is a VERY hard virus to transmit, it depends on a lot of factors, such as the viral load in the fluids she is passing on. Viral load is throught to be highest after first contracting the disease (in the seroconversion window), and when someone is just developing AIDS. BOTH of you have to be cut in the mouth and blood has to move from one cut, into the other, and like I said, even then it is very very low chances!

The chances of dying from a lightening strike in your lifetime in the United States are 1 in 27,000, the chances of you contracting HIV from kissing this girl are about 1 in 6 billion.

I would say there is NO CHANCE!
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Oh and dont even bother getting checked. You are damn paranoid if you are worried about this, if you have unprotected sex with someone from sub-saharan Africa, with a gay man, or with a known HIV carrier, then get checked. Until then, relax.

Clooney is right.

HIV/Aids is a sexually transmitted disease..but it does help to know where her mouth has been. Just kidding.

It's a sexually transmitted disease.
