"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.

What are ways to go about doing this? Especially for all you college DJ's...image is reallllllllllllllllll important..i.e. being seen with girls = interest from more girls.
 

"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.

Anyone at all? Would rushing a frat be a good idea?

Depends on the situation. It's not like I can step out of my house and everyone knows my name. People know me by the places that I go. I frequent certain places from time to time. When I go to those places, the people know me, and in those cases my social proof is high.

If I go to a party, I show up with 1 or 2 friends. I'm invited, so I must obviously know the person who's throwing the party. I talk to that person, and since it's their party, everyone else is gonna at least stop by to say hello to that person. At that time, I introduce myself to those people. Sometime during the party I'm gonna come across that person again, so I talk to them. I believe this builds social value.

I guess, over all, just talk to people that you're around. Sometimes I randomly high five people I don't even know, just to get some attention on me.
