"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.

How do you handle that sh1t? and with a 10... how do you handle the compliments vs. teasing... i don't want to be like the 100 drooling idiots she gets sucking up to her all the time.
couple things..first, her being a hb10 or not should carry no bearing on HOW you respond to this. your response should be the same across the board with any wiomen that says something like that to you.

HOWEVER..the biggest issue with this is that you are asking what to say. Any women that have ever said this to me i never take seriously. It doesnt really matter WHAT you say in response to this.

HB 1-10: I dont think you can handle me
you: well, i like green eggs and ham, ill make some tomorow morning when we get up

as long as you dont take her seriously or dont TRY to PROOF your value to her, then it doesnt matter what you say
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Her:

' I dont think you can handle me '

Me:

Piss myself laughing at her and go.

'Yeepp'!

'I see your a comedian too, thats sooooo cute', pinches her cheek!

'Do you have a twin sister'?

her:

'why'?

'just trying to figure out how some one so small, with tiny feet can possibly think they can keep up with me! :D

(wait of her to qualify herself).

And when she answers.

' and with big ear lobes too '!

"you can't handle me."


"i'm pretty sure my hands would fit comfortably around your neck."
or
"sure i can. i always use an open palm so it won't leave a mark."
or
"..." leading to her reinitiating the conversation. Then you say "Crawling back already, huh? see how easy that was?"
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Ok guys, i'm new here and i can be pretty hurtin in the game dept i admit... hoping you can help me out!

So i've been chatting with this 10 a few times and everything has been going well... i've complimented her once, but have been teasing her since... have been getting a good response and we're planning to meet up. Towards the end of our last conversation she was teasing me and i didn't have any quick comebacks, then she gives me the old

"i don't think you can handle me... frankly"

How do you handle that sh1t? and with a 10... how do you handle the compliments vs. teasing... i don't want to be like the 100 drooling idiots she gets sucking up to her all the time.

I would just say "yeah...your probably right...", and walk away with my head down, crying. Now THAT'S, Don Juan!

That's funny. I say the same thing to the girls I meet.

Welcome to being sh!t tested dude :rockon:

whatever you do... remember the most important thing is to stay non-reactive. She is sh!t testing to see if you will show a reaction. Show weakness. Coming back at her with a "smart, witty" remark is risky cause she will think you pulled it out to try and save face... reacting... it would be ok though if she could tell you were totally unfazed by her test.

I would just stay passive... when she said that, maybe I would put alittle bored expression on my face, "yeah, ok" and then boom, I would lead the convo into an entirely different topic or something. Taking charge. Not caring about her crap or being sucked in her world. she will see you are strong if you aren't reactive.

"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.
