"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.

My roomate, who I started living with a few months ago, is the BIGGEST AFC I know. I don't really feel like going into all kinds of detail about why he's the biggest AFC, but take my word for it--chronic nice guy syndrome, (always ends up "the friend,") fat, bald, no confidence, showers about every 4 days, etc. etc......
The thing is, he actually has A LOT of really cute girl-FRIENDS he hangs out with and these girls, in turn, also have a lot of cute girlfriends. Some of them are model quality.
AGAIN, take my word on this, and believe me, THESE GIRLS WILL NEVER, NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER have sex with or DO ANYTHING with my roomate!!!! NEVER!!! He is simply their emotional tampon asexual friend. These are girls who have been his FRIEND (and nothing else) for years.
My roomate knows I'm pretty good with women these days and I think he's somewhat jealous. He has stopped inviting me to hang out with him and these girls-- and it's really starting to piss me off! He's so annoying about it that he will make a big deal that he is going to go hang out with them, and then turn around and not invite me.
What can I do to bypass my roomates "fear" or worry that I'm going to get in on his "action" (which he is NEVER actually going to get) and make him not care if I hang out with his hot lady friends? SUGGESTIONS PLEASE!
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Tell him you'll help him get laid with these girls, then when he's not looking make your move. Ultimately though its a difficult situation, if you get with any of these girls then he's gonna find out, and when he does he'll probably not invite you over to his much anymore.

So there is only one way...........

Tell him you'll help get him laid, then when the opportunity arrises get some #'s from these chicks. Then from the safety of your own room (with your AFC friend long gone), call these girls and arrange to meet up over yours... simple.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
It's been a few months...you know some of these chicks well enough that you could hang with them WITHOUT your roommate, right?

Actually, after a few months you should already have a number or two...why are sitting there fooling around? :D :p

find ur own girls!

Or hell if you've met them and your that "good" next time you see that spark up a convo!
 

"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.

What exactly have you got to offer your AFC roommate except to lay your game out on these chicks and potentially bag them and make a fvcking fool out of him for being soo AFC....

we've been there!!!

Leave the guy alone and don't rely on him for chicks. Do what he did and find your own.
