"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.

Do I really have to forget about all the girls that I know since becoming a DJ?

Some of them (one in particualr that I am very interested in), kind of come in the border between me being a ***** and me beginning to grow in confidence.

I think I will see once and for all if there is a chance with this girl regardless. I will then either enter a relationship with her or forget about her.
 

"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.

Good luck! and NO you don't have to forget girls you already know. If you are any sort of DJ you'll be able to turn things around even with girls you've messed up with in the past. Some may not agree with me, but I promise you I do it everyday

A lot of people on here seem to be saying to forget about old girls, but as a DJ, I believe I can turn it around. Heck, I believe I can even bust a girl out of the 'friend zone'.... maybe.

Ok, so my problem has had another development. The girl that I am working on at the moment, is currently trying to set me up with her firend. What are your thoughts on this? Do i still have a chance? and what should i do about it?

Oh, and Im not interested in the girl who she is trying to set me up with
 

"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.

If this chick is trying to set you up with her mate I doubt she is interested. It just doesn't seem logical. But then again when have women ever followed normal logic?

I would reduce the ammount of time you spend with her to become distant. Then game her like a girl you've just met and hope for the best. If your DJ skills are up to it it'll work. It's how I got myself into my current relationship.

You don't even have to distance yourself that much. Just hang out with different people for a week or 2 while occasionally talking to her on msn or w/e messenger you use and you're in the clear as long as your DJ skills are up to par.

To be honest you don't even have to distance yourself at all if your DJ skills are good enough. Distancing yourself is simply an unecissary prepperation that could make it easyer.

Yeah but if you're slowly adapting to the DJ lifestyle then you're better off distancing yourself so they see the big change in you instead of them watching you change and barely notice it. If you change all at once in one day they'll think something is wrong with you. It's like the difference between you living with your parents for a year and then you meeting up with a friend you haven't seen in a year. To your parents you look the same as always but to your friend you're totally different. You might be taller, have longer hair, be more tanned, more mature, w/e. Distancing yourself is the best way to go I think.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

OK I think you guys are spot on with your advice. However, becasue of my slowness in acting on this girl, she has now got a boyfriend. Do I still pursue her/ show interest and go on as if the boyfriend doesn't exist?

Unless you really think you can still get her with a boyfriend then I would next her. There isn't really much point going into a love triangle.
