"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.

so this girl i have been talking to, now all of a sudden seems distant... anyways, i chatted with her online... and we just went thru some chitty chat stuff... so i told her i would call her tomorrow and she says she is out all day tomorrow. I am thinking about asking her point blank "Do you want to keep talking and see where things go? or do you just want things to be friendly"?

am i already screwed or it's not worth asking...

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Right there is the problem. Youve been talking too much. try to get her into a sexual state and you will see how distant she gets :D Probably a really close distance. :up:

Don't ask her no stuff like that, you sound like a chick.

Understand this,

I agree. Imagine asking her that question: regardless of how she responds, do you really expect there to be no awkwardness after you find out where you two stand? If she says she's serious, *and tells you this*, what then? I think it's better for this feeling to develop "under the radar" without either person blatantly telling the other that it's happening.

If she answers with "Let's just be friends," :)nervous:), you're really no worse off then you are now.

Whatever happens, good luck man.

Don't talk to a chick everyday. Unless she's your sister and you're fond of her [Maybe not even then :)]

Anyway seriously, let her miss you a bit. If she knows you want to talk to her all the time she's obviously going to lose interest.
 

"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.

I don't think that's always the case. Sometimes she'll give you mixed messages because she's testing you (which is a good thing), or because she simply doesn't know how to act due to inexperience or 'intimidation', which is also a good thing.

Maybe so, but the question is, do you really want to waste your time deciphering what she's trying to say??

From my experiences, chicks telling you they are busy and acting distant is generally a sign for not being interested. Instead of trying to break her barrier, it's best to move on and pull out another chick in your roster.

Right, it's always a good idea to pursue the girls with the higher interest levels ahead of the girls sending mixed messages, but what I was just trying to point out was that mixed messages aren't necessarily always a bad thing.

:up: Ya I feel ya too man, I have prospects so that I just passive game broads that play games like that and go after the ones that aren't doing this. Gotta keep your options open though, and shy chicks are still chicks.

Good advice for the noobs though
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Exactly.

Also, attraction creates tension. Tension creates inconsistant behavior that comes off as "mixed signals"

If a girl is 100% consistant, she probably doesn't like you and think of you only as a friend.

A lot of you wannabe DJs should drop the notion that a girl has to be into you 100% of the time. That's stupid.

No, that just means you know where she stands. That's whether she likes you or not.

There is no such thing as mixed messages, only misinterpretations. A woman will tell you exactly what she means, you just need to be able to understand how she's communicating it to you.

Now, what is this girl's behavior telling you?

NOT INTERESTED
 

"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.

Dude, you're fighting an uphill battle that you're not going to win. And even if you do get somewhere with your efforts, is it really worth spending all that energy??? You're better off moving on and hooking up with another chick--there's plenty of other chicks out there that you don't have to focus on just one.

So this chick that kinda went cold... now starts messaging me again.. and i will be in her city in canada in about 3-4 weeks and i ask if she's gonna be around... and she says.. she should be and that we should get together for coffee/dinner... should i go for it.. or is she just yanking my chain...

i may give her a last chance and lay the cards on the table as in... "don't like to play games.. you are either interested or not.. decide... and i am looking for something long term, etc..."

what do you guys think?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
