"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.

Slipping into oneitis for a straight guy.

I feel defeated.

This forum is a really cool place. I learned so much. Beat oneitis with a female friend, who i got major friendzoned by. Made progress in life, gained a lotta weight (though I'm not where I should be yet). Heck, I can tell she's starting to see me as a high value guy with options, despite how she has a boyfriend. I'm going on the right track. I sworn never to get oneitis over a girl again, and never looked back.

And I haven't caught oneitis over a girl again. But I think I'm slipping into oneitis over a guy, who I'm pretty sure is straight. The thing about this guy is that he's essentially an upgraded version of myself. A lot better looking, better than I can ever wish to become without plastic surgery. He carries this air of charisma around him. He makes people laugh, and has an un****able air of alpha surrounding him. And he dated a popular girl whos rather good looking (imo below him but still pretty good), and ****s lots of hot women.

I may never be as good looking as him, but I know I can achieve his alpha traits within time. But thats not the thing.

The thing is...I'm really slipping into the realms of oneitis. This guy is one of the few role models I have in this area of life. But this is one of the major reasons why I'm attracted to him so much....and the fact that I probably won't find another guy as attractive as him in a long time blows. This also makes him harder to next.

But I'll do it. I'll be able to next him. If I could next my former oneitis, which was probably a hundred times more severe than this...I can do this. I'll score a girl soon.... And since he's so hot...perhaps I can use him as a pivot.


I'm done venting...I may write new entries in my story as I battle this.
 

"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.

I don't know if you're joking, but this post cracked me up (I'm not homophobic or anything, your wording was funny). Are you saying that you're sexually attracted to him? If so, I don't think you're going to get very much help on this particular forum. I would probably try Google if I were you.

So do you mean you envy this guy and wish you had his traits?
or did you just come out the closet?
if so, please go back in.

Well. I'm bisexual. I don't believe in coming out of the closet, theres nothing special about being homo or straight.

And yes I envy this guys traits quite a bit.

No offense, but from what I've heard from my gay friends, it's not easy to make a straight guy curvy.

Unfortunately, I think it's more than not easy...it's downright impossible.
This is exactly why I'm very lucky to be attracted to women as well.

I think I'm making a lot of progress killing the oneitis. Focusing on inner game sure helps a lot.

Upgraded version of yourself you're not a f­ucking Digimon man he's not the evolved Pokemon version of you okay, stop with this p­ussy bullsh!t thinking, you're just killing yourself for even comparing yourself to him. It's even worse you're starting to get gay thoughts as well, which are probably eating you up worse than the self-defeatist thinking.

Just worry about yourself. I don't think you're really gay, you might be w/e but I think spinnin' mo' plates would help!!!

I'm not completely fag, I just happen to like both men and women (albeit I prefer women). And I'm currently spinning some plates. Think I need to spin even more though.

Alright you're probably just a troll. You shouldn't be "fag" at all. Dudes can be gay and still be DJs, if you're gay that's the hand you were dealt but it doesn't mean you act like a *****.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
