"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.

So a girl I've been seeing get's kinda short with me because she says she likes to be chased and I don't do that and it sucks... Mind you she's very attractive and used to guys licking at her boots, but I'm not bad looking myself and have better things to do with my day then chase a girl.... I've been trying to keep it light and just responded to her with... "Well, steal something from me and I'll chase your happy a$$... He11 I may even throw something at ya!!"

Just wondering what you guys would do and how you would respond the next time....
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Is she giving you buying signs other than what you posted? What's her body language like? Does she initiate contact with you? Are you f*cking her? If so, keep doing what you're doing. That was actually an awesome line about stealing something from you.

She is giving buying signs and keeps making statements like "I wonder where we'll be at in a year" Of which I reply "Naked hiding under my covers so the monsters don't get us... monsters hate naked people..." And yes been doing her for over a year now... Truth is I haven't ever met a woman that stays loyal to a man over the long haul so I won't give exclusive dating rights to any of them so if they get mad and want to screw some other guy well that's their prerogative and they don't have to create drama in my life to validate their mental gymnastics for doing it.... It just seems she keeps making comments about wanting to be chased... like it's some form of proof that I care about her more than a pump and dump.... I still make dates after a year so it's more than that, but I am seeing her trying to monopolize all my free time....

I'm sure she wants a million dollars too. Tough luck.. you don't always get what you want. This is what we learn in elementary school. :yes:

I'm not sure I would even respond to such a comment. The few women who have said that to me I didn't respond or I said something like: "Oh yeah?"

I'm always going to do what I want at the end of the day regardless of anything a woman says so its a moot point.

Sounds you're not the guy she wants. Move on sir! Never change yourself to meet a woman's expectations. What's will she get pissed about next? Your c*ck size? Your wallet? Your job?

No thanks.

Ignore her comments OR continue with your ****y and funny routine. (Good responses by the way.)

Actions speak louder than words and you are already getting laid and managing to keep this thing going. Don't worry about it.

You make a good point. Without the exact details from the poster, it seems that she may still be attracted to him, but maybe they aren't compatible long-term or something, and she notices that. Or she's just losing interest altogether. Only the OP knows her real behavior.

My advice for you, Clooney, is to decide if you actually want to stay with her. If not, turn her loose and get some new plates, I mean it's been a year. Don't waste her time if you don't see it working out. If she still doesn't leave, then it's on her.

This ALWAYS happens to me. Why? Because they know I DONT chase and they're not used to it.

When a girl says this she wants to know if SHE can be the one that gets you to change your behavior, it gives her power knowing that she did (if you give in)

Never ever chase a woman especially when not chasing her is blatantly working. The other men in her life can do all the chasing and guess what, even if she claims she likes it she'll be too distracted with thoughts about you for being completely different and will see you as the biggest challenge in her life.

Keep the ****y funny responses and don't chase.

When this happens to me they tend to stop contacting me (in hopes I initiate) when I don't and they get the hint, they'll either start chasing or they won't and I just move on.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Sounds like low a interest sh*t test.
When they want you they don't make it complicated.

Personaly I'd tell her "shame, I want to be chased" and next her.

Good one ^^^^ or look at her a55 and say "that doesn't seem much of a challenge" :)

Most of the retorts are good.
However, she's not looking for a "chasing", she's looking for a means to eliminate you from the prospective gene pool" or ... a sh1t test (mentioned above ... better, simple).

I've kept with what has worked for me so far... It seems to me that she wants exclusive rights more than anything else, but like I mentioned above I don't put much stock in it... As for committing or cutting her lose... She has free will to not contact me or not take my calls, figure she does because she enjoys being around me... It could be a sh!t test or just plain confusion on why I'm not like the other guys she runs into everywhere she goes that come up and hit on her then chase her like a fat kid after cake.... If I had to guess (which to be honest I have better things to do with my time then try and figure out what goes on in someones brain, unless I'm doing a business deal with them)... She may be projecting... that if I'm not on her phone that I must be on someone else's..... Now sometimes that's very true, but for the most part I'm either working, working out, or enjoying the day....
