"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.

Need your guys opinion.

This friend of mine has a smoking hot gf, she was in the hooters calendar lol anyways, they are constantly fighting over the years but always come back to eachother. No I highly doubt its love, its that he is rich and she is hot so neither thinks they can do better.

This past New Years they were fighting and I guess he was alone and was going to kill himself. He called my buddy W at the time to talk. (W and I stopped talking because I realized that he was fake as fvck around 6 months ago) Few months later while me and W are still friends W tells me that he fvcked the other guys girl.

I think about this all the time and feel that my buddy needs to know about it but he is obviously very unstable when he doesnt have her. Dont get me wrong he is pretty alpha but I guess she is his weakness.

Would you tell him? I have a text from W basically saying "he's a hater, thats why I fvcked his girl" so its not a case where they would be able to deny it.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

well ya that sounds easy enough but you know how people want to shoot the messenger. Thats the problem I am having, me telling him will ruin things between them. Obviously that is the way it should be but still, dont want him to get all pissed at me for filling him in on this.

Think about what how it would be if you were in his place. Would suck wouldn't it ?
 

"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.

ya thats what I mean, I have thought about it both ways. not telling him atleast he is ignorantly happy (although right now they appear to be fighting so itd be a good time to tell him), telling him he will be pissed at the world and possibly kill himself since I doubt he will ever go back to her after finding this out.

Would you prefer and easy girl that does everything you want ? Or a hard headed, structured, challenge woman? Think with your brains not emotions.

well since W is not your friend and this rich dude with the hot GF is... you're obviously on his side.

This is a hard choice though IMO, because of two things:
1) If he's suicidal it could be dangerous to tell him.
2) Your hope is that he realizes what a cheating hoe bag she is and leaves her...however in all reality, do you think that's really going to happen? You say he's alpha but he seems like this girl kind of owns him. From the info you've given us i anticipate he'll get pissed at her for a while and then they'll just make up and he'll rationalize her cheating.

You know him better than us. I would err on the side of telling him. But only if you're sure he's not going to hurt himself and that he'll likely leave her.

Ya, thats how Im thinking. Leaning towards telling him and just letting him know that if he needs to talk to someone then I am there for him.

As for the bold part, if that happens then she ends up hating me and he wont be allowed to be my friend anymore lol
