"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.

So this weekend I might have some company. Been priming for this a while now. I've literally shed blood and tears for this opportunity. I'm cooking up a storm for this girl, got dessert ready to go, you name it.

Well about a week or two I suddenly get infested with roaches!

I'm no slob...I keep a relatively clean place, it's gotta be the *#!$ neighbors. I'm so damn pissed. I've been running around the apartment with a vacuum cleaner, it seems there are 2 main villains right now.

I fear that my female visitor will see one of these and turn and flee before she even can see me with my shorts down :mad:

Any good roach extermination tips...I don't care if they only work for one day, that is my purpose.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

propably not the best place to ask for roach solutions. As far as what else you can do, I'm really not sure. If some girls know there were once roaches in a place, even if your place is clean, and you since taken care of it, they still won't trust to be in that place, they'll cosider it very tanted for quite awhile.

Keep kitchen surfaces clean with sanitizer or equivalent. Put roach poison near suspect sources. Seal any visible cracks near floors, vents, steam radiators, sink pipes. It's common sense man.

You could always flea (& small insect, like roaches) bomb your apartment... today would be the day to do it though, as you don't want the whole place smelling like a flea bomb when she gets there.
 

"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.

I would take her out to dinner until I got the roach thing under control. Man that sucks, but I would say do not let her anywhere near the apt. while you have that deal going on.

Befriend the roaches and have them do various chores for you, keep them enticed with maybe a large raw t bone steak.

My previous apartment had a SERIOUS roach problem. It got to the point where if i go into the kitchen in the middle of the night and flick on the lights, 3-4 of those fvckers would fall on my head. There was not a single square inch of the ceiling that didnt have a roach on it.

I got some potent stuff, forgot the name, and they dissapeared in a couple of months.

But yeah roaches really scare chicks to death, so i'd take care of it as soon as possible.
 

"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.

That takes the cake :p




Well I think I've vacuumed all the suckers up for the short term, I really need to seal up the entry points though. I'm going to cross my fingers and hope that my bad relatives don't drop in at the most inopportune time...
