"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.

Basically, how do I raise her self esteem, without seeming like an AFC ass-kisser?

Thanks

Wow this is a tough one. Well first why do you need to raise her self esteem?

Basically the best way to raise a chicks self esteem, is to show interest in her.

Of course it depends on the girl.

Do you really want to raise her self esteem?

Just make her feel good about you, not herself.

Because it's low...

Do you really want to raise her self esteem?
Good point, I hadn't really thought about that. I guess it all stems from the fact that I really don't buy into all this psychological manipulation. I respect my girl, and while I'm not whipped or a pvssy, I don't want to be a womanizing prick either. I want more than just some hot piece of ass. So, when she's feeling down on herself (which I don't get, she's really smart and beautiful), I want to make her feel better, without sacrificing my manhood in the process.

You're 16, are you really looking for a LTR?

You aren't manipulating her if shes already got low self-esteem, infact, you would be manipulating her if you tried to raise it.

Don't bring her lower, but don't raise her up.

Although in some cases, it may be a good idea to raise their self esteem a bit, but in this situation I'd say no.
 

"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.
