"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.

All my friends are such douchebags.

I like this girl Laura, who's best friends with Jessica. My friend Alejandro tells me that Jessica wants to know when I'm going to ask out Laura, and I'm not supposed to know Jessica wants to know this. I don't believe him, because he could be lying. Also because I've never got the signs that Laura likes me, except the ok with me kinoing her. In fact, during English, she totally ignores me unless I talk to her (well, we do sit on opposite sides). I've called her maybe 5 times for homework help, once to "just talk", up until now. But she never once called me. In the halls, she always walks by me and talks to her friends instead. Never did the hair twirl thing. She has asked about me and my ex-girlfriend before though. Often times mentioning I'm a bad boyfriend because of the things I did to my ex-.

So I go out on Tuesday to the bowling alley with my friend Alejandro, and supposedly Jessica is suppose to come. I also ask Laura to go (right after school Tuesday), she says sure, but then she calls me an hour before says she can't cuz her parents can't drive her that far out. Anyway, Jessica decides to stay home, and ditch us. So when we get there, we find out the BA is closed, and Alejandro decides to go to Jess's house. I decide to go home. When Alejandro gets to Jessica's house, I call to check up on him, and I ask to talk to Jessica. Jessica asks if I like Laura. I say yes, and she tells me to ask her out. I ask if Laura likes me, and she kind of beats around the bush. She says she can't screw Laura's trust, but kind of says Laura does. Also mentions Laura also says she doesn't really know me. Which is weird because I've known Laura for over a year, but only hung out with Laura once outside school. I guess girls are different. Jessica also mentions that she's happy that we'll be able to double date.

So Wednesday I call Jessica again, and we 3-way the phone convo (****ing pervs) but Laura doesn't know Jess's on the other line. I small talk Laura, and then say "Don't worry about Bowling, we didn't go. Line was too long. Anyway, Me, Drew (Jess' boyfriend), and Jess are going out Sat... we should double date, want to come along?" Laura again says "Sure." When Laura gets off the phone, Jessica tells me Drew and I should pick the date.

Thursday is Thanksgiving.

Today is Friday. Today I call Drew, and tell him we're suppose to pick. Drew seems to brush me off, and give me a "I don't know." I told him to call his gf and find out what we're doing and call me back. This is about 8:00. He seemed annoyed. At 9:15, I say **** it, I don't care what Drew thinks, I just want Laura. Drew doesn't answer, and so I call Jess. Jess says we probably won't go out Sat (tomorrow), cuz Jess's hurt and "Laura's parents prob wouldn't be able to do anything".


Based on that long rant... what does it sound like? Laura likes me, but her parents won't let her get out of the house? Laura's parents is her excuse not to go out with me? Or do I have some ****ty luck with going out with friends?


I also thought just talking to Laura would be the best way to cut the foreplay, but am I diving in to something she's totally unaware of? Any advice is appreciated.



PS -
Yes, I read the DJ Bible. Yes, I've done a little bit of AFCing here. Yes, I realize being rejected twice is a no-no in Anti-Dump's book, but is it really a rejection?
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

If you actually like her, she does NOT like you.

That's how it works and that rule is forever true and will always be true.

Between both sexes.

Mutual love or whatever is usually not as simple as you may think and probally too complicated to imagine. "I stay because I need blah blah" it will NEVER be. "I really like you!" and "I really like you!".

That's impossible. Rock bottom truth here. Sorry buddy.

But as for some constructive help there.. she's still just a confused 16 year old girl.. she's not masturbating to your image at night or anything like you probally are with her, but if you get the balls.. she'll probally still go out with you. See what happens, if you do it right.. you'll start liking her less and she'll be the one getting wet at the thought of your name.

lol this post is so creepy and yet so true.
 

"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.

Another title disappointment ><, damn it!

Man, talk directly to Laura. The best way to find out is to do it yourself. Besides...double dates aren't fun unless there's definite interest from everyone. For you...it doesn't sound like it.
 

"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.

Thanks. You're always good for advice, Doc.

Should I just talk to her Monday at school, and judge where she's at? I can sit with her at lunch, and figure it out. Or should I play it cool like nothing happened, and try one more time (being denied = just give up)?

Why the hell do you ask your friend about your "girlfriend"?

That's the biggest sack of crap post I've ever seen. You need to get a life, and stop pissing it away with gossip and "I like her, does she like me?" "I think she likes me, do I like her?" crap.

As to whether she likes you or not...Ask yourself: would I like me, if I was in her position?

I hope she loathes you, I know I would.

"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.

As much as it pisses me off, you're right. I dropped the ball on this one. Live and learn.

Yup. Just got denied. She likes some "other" guy. Damn I looked desperate looking back. It's sad too, because she had no tits or ass. I'm going to bulk up, and when that ***** comes crawling back, I'm going to reject 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.
