"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.

Alright, here's one of the things I like to do. I buy guitars that I think are worthy of having and I hot rod then with better, more professional components. I've always wanted a bad ass Explorer, but I didn't know if they radical shape would be uncomfortable or not. So I bought a $400 one, it arrived, and it felt great when I tried it. Onto the lab, where I performed surgery on it and gave it active pickups, cooler knobs, a better switch, a metal jack plate, routed it for a 9V battery, painted it here, painted it there in flat black to match, and voila. A custom explorer:

It doesn't look this clean and pristine anymore because I play/record with it whenever I get the chance. The recording music is yet another occupation I enjoy doing. More on that later.

Thanks for reading!
 

"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.

Well other than constant work on that software project I mentioned on the last page, today I replaced the lock on the front door to my house. A key had broken inside the lock, so it obviously needed to be replaced. A little trickier than I imagined but not so hard. Had fun fixing something with my own two hands.
