"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.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

What even happened in this case before this? I can't see that this man would get sent to prison unless he was doing something shady to intentionally avoid payment and simultaneously ran his personal finance into the ground.

I thought (at least in UK rather than US law) that after a certain point in a relationship 50% of the man's possessions are legal property of his wife in a split. That means she's not entitled to any more, other than child payment. HOWEVER over here, if you prove that your wife/LTR girlfriend didn't contribute equally to the house/possessions, you can basically give her exactly what she paid in.

So for example she would get 10% of the house worth if she was working from home and didn't contribute financially.

I don't know, as unfair as marriage courts can be, men don't just get sent down for tiny infractions. This guy must have been doing something prior to this video that soured the case against him, I will have to research it.

Getting raped in divorce court isn't the same as skipping down the street and having a piano unexpectedly fall on your head.

Sure, if you think your marriage is "set and forget" after the honeymoon is over, that is a foolish way to live. Nearly every problem guys have with relationships is making assumptions about how the woman WILL behave based on some vague idea of how women SHOULD behave.

It always reminds me of that scene from the Blues Brothers, where they got the first two beers for free, and assumed all the rest would be free.

What happened to this guy is a shame, but sorry. It's his own fvcking fault. You have to pay child support... PERIOD. If you don't have the money, too fvcking bad... go get another job and make up the difference. If you still are not making enough money, then file a motion in court for a reduction, then start paying WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD.

This idiot thought he could walk into a court of equity (not a court of law) without a lawyer, and convince the judge that the division of assets was child support? Again. I am not saying any of this is right, but what in the hell did he expect?

As long as you file the motion, and make SOME effort to pay something reasonable, based on what you are earning now, you will NOT get locked up. But you have to pay SOMETHING... if you are collecting un-employment, then 20% has to go to child support, minimum. Sorry it's this way, but you have to find some kind of work... even if it's working in a McDonald's... you have to show you are making an effort.
Options he didn't bother taking.

If that's the case, yes, he's a fool.
