"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.

Don't have time anymore, and basically lost interest.

I'm not soliciting here, but what do you think is a fair asking price for:

All accessories are from Microsoft

360 w/20 GB HD
Wireless controls (2)
Network Adapter
Quick charge kit
DVD remote

Dead Rising
Gears of War
Call of Duty 3
Lost Planet
Crackdown
MLB 2K7
NBA 2K7
Tomb Raider Legend
Need For Speed Carbon
Lego Starwars II
Ultimate Alliance
Saints Row
Viva Pinata

Other stuff:

Halo faceplate
D-Link DGL-4300 router

Trying to turn a profit on E-Bay obviously, but I've got no problems hanging on to it if the price is too low.
 

"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.

You may want to take your list to your local book retailer (Barnes & Noble, B. Daltons, etc...) and look in the collectible sections. I purchase coin books often to keep our collection valued, they have tons of reference books with price lists. I am sure you will find one that would give you pretty credible values.

Well I figured the games will probably go for $20-$35 depending on the title, maybe some for $15 as they're older. If could break $1000 I'd be happy.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
