"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.

You can't believe in what a girl tells you she'd like.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I walk into the bank and strutting my stuff

i walked into the school lunch canteen area peacocking the new jumper my mother knitted for me which reads "TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL"

I decided to give up the rose plan

if i get caught stealing flowers from the school garden again i will be suspended

the fact that yeah, it might freak her out a little bit, depending on what kind of person she is

the old lady at the school lunch canteen window will for a fact figure out i stole it from the school gardens based on me being the captain of the school flora club and the fact that the groundskeeper sowed all the school flowers one colour. curse you groundskeeper Willy...curse you

I say, Hey sarah, when I see her. Her face lights up. I walk towards the front counter to make a deposit.

I say, Hey Mrs Smith when i see her and the old lady's face lights up. I walk towards the front lunch counter to pay for my lunch

After I get all that stuff done, I walk back to her desk and say

after i buy milk cause my mother says i have to i walk back to her register

What would it take for you to be my PERSONAL banker.?

i ask if i order a grilled chesse sandwich will your old wrinkly hands be the ones that cook it ?

And she says, 'not too much, that's my job.'

And she says, 'yes, that's my job.'

I say, " I appreciate the enthusiasm', keep the gaze locked, and she looks away, halway blushing.

I say, " I appreciate the enthusiasm', keep the gaze locked, and she looks away hearing the sound of an oven bell meaning the pies are cooked

OK thats all I remember about the original things that we said to each other... but I did tell her soon after about my original plan to give her a rose out of 'pity' as I put it but of course she was smart enough to know better. She said that would have been a great thing to do and she would have loved to have a flower on her desk. And I got her number . CELL number , *****es.

I told her i was captain of the school flora club but ofcouse she was smart enough to know this. i asked her if the runours were true and that she had been to prison 35 years ago and had only just been cleared for working with children. she told me yes and told me she still remembered her cell block number in prison. i wrote this down. i got her cell number b****es!

And the convo lasted.. maybe 10min total.. if that. short and sweet.

And the convo lasted.. maybe 10min total.. if that. 2 minutes talking and 8 minutes me daydreaming

Mwuh ha ha. I rule.

mum has told me since i was little i am special.

:crackup:

Beside's RJ, dude, I don't know about everyone else here but doesn't "of course, that's my job" sound like she's uninterested? And another thing, you didn't even go through with your "perfect plan". chicken sh*t. Cause you knew we were right. Didn't you?
 

"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.

wow R_J you need to buy a t-shirt that says "Property of Lost" He called you out on EVERY SENTENCE of your pathetic post. I'm actually embarrassed for you.:yes:
 

"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.

I do.... I'm so damn good, I should be a god :D

Now that's being positive!

You end up following their advice then you call them ****y dumbases? you sound like the ****y dumba.ss.
Agreed. You ditched giving the rose to her co-worker for delivery (which we said was a stupid idea) and approached her directly. And it worked. Thanks to us, you saved $4 that you would have spent on a stupid flower.

I think you should be thanking us instead of trying to turn this around. As a thank you, I think you should mail that $4 to me.

Something positive

1. You made the right decision in not giving her the rose. That kinda stuff is for well after you have gotten to known her, not in the begining. The begining is all about trying to figure out her interest level and whether it is worth it.

2. While I can only go on what you wrote, you seemed to portray yourself to her as someone fun and confident. That is good.

3. Remember this is just the beginning, getting a number is not that special. It just means she is is giving you and opportunity. Make her work to get your interest, then you will know that you have hers.

are you sure this really happened or are you just trying to make yourself look cool?

It doesn't sound real at all.


For some reason I just don't think you actually had the courage to get her number.


You don't go from MAJOR ask licking AFC to DJ master over night.

Hey, if you're gonna waste money, why not send it my way! Everytime you wanna give a girl a rose, send me $4. That way you satisfy your urge to waste money, and I make profit. Everybody wins!!! :D

I think this applies here:

Not sure of who, but I've seen someone say on this board something like "giving an unearned gift is like rewarding your dog for ****ting on the carpet". ....or for that matter, mentioning that you were going to give a gift must be like feeding your dog as a reward for ****ting on the carpet..... LOL

Rj is having fun.

If he isnt getting his hopes up too much it will probably work out for him. A phone number really isnt anything, but good for RJ nonetheless he feels a success and it is a small one. He is becoming a better man.

My recomendation is to just say to the girl when you see her, "Would you like to have sex with me tonight?" Seriously, that is my recomendation. Go for broke. You arent good enough to play it slow.

The shiit talking poosweeds are welcomed to post their radical successes.

Rj. Dont get your hopes up. You will probably fail to lay this girl. Next time you will do it better but probably fail again. After that you will probably have it right.

good luck.

"giving an unearned gift is like rewarding your dog for ****ting on the carpet"

No that would be giving an undeserved gift. Giving your dog a treat because he likes you is giving and unearned gift.

Give no love, get no love.

Love all women, hate individual ones. Show it.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
