"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've always had a thing for punk/scene chicks. And just found this effin' gorgeous girl on myspace while I was just goofing around.

What's the best way to write a pickup letter to some chick off of myspace?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"Hey, lets go see (insert local punk band here) they're playing at (insert location) on (insert date). "

Pretty simple really.

Don't write a pick up letter. Keep it casual... Oh your into punk music too? What are some of your favorite bands. Play it cool because if you right a pick up letter she'll think of you as all the other guys who write on there.

Oh sh1t, you haven't talked to her yet? Ok, disregard my first post, I thought you had talked to her. Follow bachelor's advice, and then when it's time to ask out use mine.
