"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.

"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.

I`ll keep that in mind, going to Texas and Houston in particular.
Tonight I found myself sitting in my regular bar - without even one remotely hot woman nearby, and only one hot wait staff member, who was put to shame by my last date - and tons of guys my age, missing my 21 year old who used to Uber 25 miles to see me. I realized my time is done here. I think I'm moving to San Antonio (a short ride to Austin just in case).

I also want a regular bar to go to, its so american.
Austin is the place to be in Texas? Why not move there
Im trying to sleep when immages of this oneitis keeps entering my mind, the most beautiful dark blue eyes I have ever seen. It also makes me think of the high score theory even more. If I as a man can feel this so strongly after only fuking her twice, imagine all the other guys she couldnt get and her pain. No wonder these sluts have no good left in them at an older age (this particular onitis was 28 like me at the time, and said she was stressed out over her age)
High value men are leaving the rest of us newbies with damaged goods, cant we just get mainstream media to hate brad pits instead of all men and get along?
Just some thoughts keeping me up
The two things that make us the strongest:
1) Getting our oneitis to fall in love with us to begin with.
2) Getting over them.
"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.
She looks like one of those girls in those movies where the bad guys uses the good looking girl to seduce the good guy and fall in love with her, and then leave him heartbroken when he finds out the truth.
Who knows, maybe she'll become famous one day.

She broke the thank-you-text rule so I never wrote to her again. She did text after the date, but it was something like "send me some of the photos when you get a chance". Not good enough. Am I becoming too high maintenance?
It's amazing to me how many women forget to say thank-you. I don't mind spoiling them (she said it was the best first date of her life, to which I replied 'If you're still single in your 40's you pretty much have your PhD in dating'), but if they don't send a simple note saying "I had a really good time and appreciate your taking me out", etc, it is over. That was one thing my last girlfriend never failed to do.
She had me singing Elvis Presley in no time.
So I held out and tonight she sent two texts, saying "Neil, PLEASE REPLY - my phone was broken!"
She actually assumed her phone wasn't working when I didn't reply!
I swung by her work tonight and she threw herself at me. I told her I texted her 200 times but that she missed them all, but then showed her that I hadn't even replied. She couldn't believe it.
I took this photo.

To be honest, I don't find her all that attractive. If she's got a good personality, I'd give her a pass solely because of her age. But those fvcking hand tattoos!!! That's a disqualifier right there for me, especially for such a young woman. That's like getting a brand new car and putting stickers & decals all over it.
Once a woman gets her first tattoo, she's pretty much ruined. They always want to get more.
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
In a way, the ink is like Neil spray. Keep the Neil off. It's sort of a heartbreak prevention system. I'll never fall for her now. So she can cure me without infecting me.
