"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.

Smell; Sweating

Sometimes I will notice that I smell "down there." It's not incredibly strong or anything, and you can only smell it if your head is near there, but I'd still rather not get it. From what I've heard, this is caused by jacking off. I've heard it called "the funk." It's not a huge issue, because taking a shower generally gets rid of it, and it usually only occurs when there's a lot of *** and precum. However, for when it does occur, is there anyway to stop it, or even avoid it altogether other than showering and not jacking off? And has anyone else experienced this?


My other question is on sweating. I saw the other question on it, but mine is unrelated to that since it doesn't have to do with exercising. Anyways, I sweat a lot. Like I would say most of the time, I get pit stains, whether they're noticeable or not (thankfully, many of the times they aren't, and when they are, I hide them). And most of the time I still don't smell because I shower between 1 and 2 times a day, and wear deodorant, sometimes cologne, so that's good. But it's still annoying to have all the sweat.
Anything I can do to keep me from sweating so much? What deodorants would you reccomend that actually work, since none that I've tried have worked very well (I currently use Mitchum solid stick, and it seems to be better than some other brands)?
 

"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.

I use the shield roll-on. Fixes everything wonderfulyl for me. Just don't use it when you don't have to. :) Blocking your sweat from comming out means you're blocking your lymph. While we can manage with only blocking 1% of our body surface, it's still not very reccomended. :) So use anti-persperants sparingly.

A good spray of deoderant also works nicely, though it doesn't last as long as antipersperant. :) Ciao!

Ermmmm... sorry, but this raises some questions in my mind regarding your hygiene practices, the first of which is this: Why do you leave c*m/pre-cu* on your body after you've finished masturbating? Perhaps if you use a rag or towel of some sort to "finish up" in, you won't have the problem of stagnant ejaculate coating your body causing unpleasant odors. As for the general topic of "smelling down there", you need to start thoroughly cleaning your entire groinal area (everywhere) with anti-bacterial soap. Then, be sure that it's completely dry before you put your clothes on - if need be, use the hair dryer on a cooler setting to eliminate all moisture from the affected area.

My first recommendation would have been to use Mitchum (I use the unscented gel), but since you're already applying this on a regular basis it sounds like it's time to step it up a notch. Next on the list of things that you should try is "Certain Dri". This is availiable at most drug stores, and is sold over the counter. It's a liquid that you roll on to your armpits each night before going to sleep. If this doesn't work, the same manufacturer makes a prescription form of the solution called "DrySol". You'll need to have a dermatologist prescribe this to you before you'll be able to get it. DrySol has a success rate of 80%.

Here's more information on DrySol:

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

No, I'm not fat. If anything I'm kind of skinny. 5' 11" 150lbs.

And thanks for the info.

Diablo, I am cleaning up. I mean I don't like wash myself or anything after I do it, but it's not like I just leave it all there. I could try starting to just use a washcloth afterwards and see if that does anything. But it's not like it happens all the time. I've only noticed it 2 or 3 times.

And I do shower often, and always make sure to scrub there.
