"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.

"HOT ENOUGH FOR YOU"-does this elicit a response......well ya but more likely to get a monosyllable yes/no answer. Appropriate to the forum yes indeed, just not very original when it's above 90 degrees outside. Now if you used that same line in the winter time you would increase the humor factor but again it does next to nothing for initiating conversation beyond the yes/no response. (OBSERVATIONAL)

MY MAGIC 8 BALL SAYS YOU'RE NOT WEARING PANTIES..........OH MY BAD IT'S AN HOUR FAST-this is funny and not really offensive, it's under 15 seconds, could work in almost any forum, sounds kinda cheesy and canned (prepared, researched then memorized). (HUMOR)

SO WHY DO YOU HAVE TO RESORT TO PAYING SOMEONE TO FIND YOU A DATE-this can be used online, in an IM conversation, at a speed dating event. This is an open-ended question that requires an extended elaboration beyond the yes/no. somewhat challenging, semi-original, genuine with no real hidden agenda, non-offensive. (OPEN ENDED)

YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE ALL TALK, MARY POPPINS CHICS-this challenges women by you qualifying them to be more playful & adventurous. They have to demonstrate that they have something to offer. (CHALLENGING).

MY NAME IS (INSERT YOUR NAME) ..........AND YOU ARE........-the direct approach does not work well with all people or for that matter extremely hot women with attitudes. This does little to make you appear fun, exciting, vibrant. It can however open the door to more conversation. This would be best utilized after your attempt at some laughs. (DIRECT APPROACH). Info exchanges come later on.

THE REASON FOR GLOBAL WARMING......YOU ARE A HOTTIE-complimenting a chic right from the very beginning sets the tone that she is the prize for you to win over. It lacks a challenge, tends to be superficial and predictable if she is hot. Works on average looking women a lot better, does not demonstrate any humor. If you must express your attraction, do it once and later on. (COMPLIMENTARY)

ARE YOU WEARING PERFUME-asking a lame question that is so transparent just smells of wussiness. Women know you are trying to pick them up and are aware of the fact that you have no interest in their earings, perfume, wardrobe, where they live or even their first name. The good news some like the attempt, the bad news some don't. (SITUATIONAL)

HEY DID U SEE THE ACCIDENT-now this often overlooked line tugs at ones curiosity. The bad news is that it does little to evoke two way conversation. (THREADING/STORY TELLING)
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Don't use this sh*t. :nono: It does reek of wussiness and is overall too damn cliche'. Makes it too damn obvious you're trying to get in her pants. A quick way to set yourself up to hit a brick wall going 93. :trouble: Try talking about her fashion sense or compliment her clothes...a nice ice breaker.:cool:

I'd only use those on girls I wasn't planning to get with, and seeing as I rarely waste breath on girls I'm not trying to get with, that means almost never.
