"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.

what are your guys thoughts on this? for example if you meet a hot 24 year old when your 23 and your making 40k a year....a year later your making 100k. The same woman’s now a 7.....you leave and try to go for a 9 right?

Also I have ridiculously high standards. I can’t **** anything less than an 8 and she has to be Better than my ex or I know Ill feel terrible about myself. I just don’t like the idea of going backwards in life
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Odds are, she'll leave you first.

So what is the solution? Only date women equal to your status? No way to live
You see relationships as disposable. THAT'S, no way to live.o_O

Well, I want the hottest girl possible to give me as much status as possible. Also in case I decide to have kids, I will have the best genes available. If a girl with better genes comes along, or better quality woman why wouldn't I leave my current?

The golden rule: treat those as you wish to be treated

Result: you will leave a girl for the most beautiful girl and she will do the same

Better looks does not equal better genes
Better looks does not equal a better mom
Better looks does not equal a better partner

You want high status and beautiful? You better be able to provide the same. 200k+ with zero debt and a million dollar net worth is monetary value, strong emotional intelligence is interpersonal value, and a broad social circle is social value.

It goes back to what I spout to most men and women who claim they are too picky.

FEAR!

Extreme pickiness is a huge defined set of defense mechanisms with an underlying fear of a real long-term romantic relationship. Those people are afraid to depend on someone for fear of getting hurt. They're often afraid of being seen for who they really are or having someone they date see flaws or weaknesses in them.

Your Current LTR should always be better than your EX

If it ain't the case... there is something wrong!

Oh and if you think: Well my EX was a 7, now in a LTR with a 7.5 but i saw this 9... let's dump the LTR to see if I can get the 9.... you ain't much different than the girls seeking someone better.

PS: In dating, you should date multiple (plate spin)... if you LTR it means you have picked 1 steady girlfriend to build a life with...
PS2: If you ain't happy in your LTR... definitely dump and move ON
PS3: It remains that your NEXT LTR is BETTER than the EX

I see a string of ex trophy wives and multiple alimony payments in your future.
