"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.

I don't see the problem here.

Sounds like you're doing exactly what you need to be doing. We all know you like her at least a little, or you wouldn't still be hanging out with her at all. Keep it up. Start doing your homework (closet skeletons, fertility issues, crazy parents, psychopath, freaky about little rat dogs, etc. etc. etc.).
 

"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.

Zekko, the subject of my post was not 'Desdinova's situation'. The subject of my post was 'Iqqi and the things she subtly implied in her post'.

So the reflections I wrote about Desdinova's situation were not meant as a personal comment on his situation, they were meant to support my comment on Iqqi and the things she subtly implied in her post. You read those reflections totally out of context.
Great job mind fvcking yourself, buddy. Do this all the time with women or life in general, and you are sure to have great success. :rolleyes:

Zekko seems to have understood it, probably because I didn't imply anything, I just simply SAID what I MEANT.

If Des is happy with the girl, but she wants more, then she is the one who would walk away because HE could not give HER what she wants. He is getting what he wants, he is satisfied. SHE is NOT.

Get it? :)

:rolleyes:

Anyways, the post was meant for Des, but I don't know if he considered what I said.

I see after all these years iqqi is still here providing her misinformation and disharmony.

The only thing that I've really found that sets off an alarm is that she apparently has a chunk of debt, but since I don't plan on ever living with another woman, it's irrelevant. Her parents are cool (and still together) and her siblings are cool too. She's a little on the needy side, but I always liked my women a tad needy since it keeps them nicely attached.

My only real beef is that she's not higher on the looks scale. She's not homely, but I've dated better looking women. She's the only one that was worth keeping around out of the herd of women I dated last winter. After my screwball marriage ended, I dated women who were fairly fvcked up, so dating someone who's on the level has been a breath of fresh air.

But... if another more attractive woman takes an interest in me, I can't say that I'll be turning her down.
