"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 the DJ Bible too big?

Cut up the Bible!!

Its not my intention to be all negative, but does anyone else feel as though the DJ Bible is too big - maybe in need of thinning out? Its just, there is an awful lot of posts there which I do not feel particularly drawn towards - incidentally I have read them all - and feel they somewhat lower the quality. I don't want to name specifics but, perhaps a reduction in size would lead to an increase in quality - Robert Jordan ''a rare commodity''.

Maybe this is just my opinion, but regardless of how highly the DJ Bible is regarded it could provide even more credibility. Not strictly necessary I admit, but as one of those people who want things ''just right'' maybe its worth a thought.




Hows my diplomacy coming along?

(Just re-read this; Robert Jordan is not an example)

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Yes!

I like the philosophical musings and theory. I think some of the tips are ridiculous. I like the writings of Allen Thompson, Pook (sometimes ... he gets too wordy), and some others.

A lot of people like the sound of their own voice and write too much.

It needs to be trimmed by about one-third, IMO.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

agreed, one of my mates took one look and said maybe later, especially as older members tend to flame n00bs by saying read the bible if they have under 50 post count
