"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.

In the begining s*** was sweet. I played the cool DJ: indiffernt, suave, and secure in myself. I got me a fine girl, I was actually a little surprised I got her, and everything was cool. Now we been together for a couple months and we're doin the love-birds thing, and we've seemed to switch roles. First she was desperate for my attention, she was the one always calling, I had all the hand in the relationship. Now I'm the one who's always calling and desperate for her attention. Suddenly I'm insecure and I NEED her. I hate it.

How can I get back on top after so much time?

I feel like she could be the one, but I can't stand being the b**ch in the relationship.
 

"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.

You know, I used to get that way too, maybe still do on occasion. I found it helped to put a little distance by not caving in and being the one who did all the calling, if she likes you she'll call. wait a little while so that she has to be the one to call. This could be hard to do since it sounds like you are really into this chick. Try to focus on something else that makes you happy for a few days, then she'll start to wonder what's going on, which will make her crazy, and she'll call because she can't get you out of her head. Women tend to go nuts when men do the opposite of what they expect. Then when she's obsessed with why you haven't called she'll want to call all the time, putting you back in control.

If you don't want to be the sissy, DON'T BE THE SISSY. How much more simplistic can it be?

for me it was the opposite..
we've been together 5 months now..
and atfirst, while i stuck with "dj" idea's, it was much harder for me to not be jealous or needy, or miss her..
but now its easy to be "dj" with her because i actually half want to break up with her, not really sure..
lately its prob been 75/25 stay with her.. but it changes..
anyway, if u can actually not give a ****, its easier then faking not giving a ****..

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
Don't be so available. Find some sh!t to do with yourself so you're NOT always worried about what she's doing and always calling her up pining for her attention.

This isn't about her, it's about YOU. YOU need to get your life back in order.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

true story... it happened 2 me recently. she was all over me then stopped just like that!! i called her, always was available etc... nothing in response really. We broke up afta doing like nothing together for over a month.

The best advice i can give u is to stop trying too hard. call her less and be less available. She has to realize that your time and attention should be treated with respect!!! If she really wants you she will change n respect u but if she doesnt then it is in your best interests to go else where..... harsh but true.
