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.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
He may have some valid insights on life, but then again, who doesn't?Law 27: Play on People’s Need to Believe to Create a Cultlike Following
People have an overwhelming desire to believe in something. Become the focal point of such desire by offering them a cause, a new faith to follow. Keep your words vague but full of promise; emphasize enthusiasm over rationality and clear thinking. Give your new disciples rituals to perform, ask them to make sacrifices on your behalf. In the absence of organized religion and grand causes, your new belief system will bring you untold power.
Law 32: Play to People’s Fantasies
The truth is often avoided because it is ugly and unpleasant. Never appeal to truth and reality unless you are prepared for the anger that comes for disenchantment. Life is so harsh and distressing that people who can manufacture romance or conjure up fantasy are like oases in the desert: Everyone flocks to them. There is great power in tapping into the fantasies of the masses.
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.
haha he was aiming for 365 Silver Rolss Royces! And yes he says all conditions from the past should be cleaned so a new being is born. I like that, because if women could drop all ideas of being sluts , used and so on, you men would get more sex! In fact, he says everyone should be naked and have sex in the street, everywhere, whenever they feel like. Also he said that if this can happen, perversions would stop immediately, and pornography would have no attraction. He even violated the Holy Bible, he said that it had 500 pages of preached pornography, which is absolutely true!Beowolf said:Do you mean that tiny dweesh who thought he was God, who had 90+ Rolls Royces, preached sexual violence, arrogantly violated public laws, used biological poisoning againest local residents, and had armed guards wielding semiautomatic weapons?
These are the stupid laws by politics, which is absolutely stupid. Politics by its nature is manipulative, stupid.Deep Dish said:Chandra Mohan Jain, a.k.a. Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, a.k.a.

The 48 Laws of Power disagree with you. The laws of power are all around us, right now, in each and every interaction. The laws are amoral, good and evil play from the same playbook. The game of power is inescapable, and we are all players. "If the game of power is inescapable, better to be an artist than a denier or a bungler."Olivia said:These are the stupid laws by politics, which is absolutely stupid.

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.
Thanks for the info.( . )( . ) said:That reminds me. All these unwashed "mystics" in these 3rd world sh!t holes would be having a field day with all these backpacking SWPL's trying to "find themselves" and God/s in anything and everything except the bible. Fvck game, setup a straw hut in some dark continent, spit out some gobbledygook to have the young white libtard thinking your some deep guru and watch the panties drop. Seems to be a prequisite now for every future cat herder to muck about in these foreign cesspits, also probably explains the influx in news stories of all these clueless Western chicks getting raped and murdered overseas. Making the simple mistake that men from other countries will play as nice as the neutered, emasculated Western men she grew up with.
Honestly feel a bit sorry for the poor b!tches when you think about how badly their men back home have let them down.
