"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.

I've been dating this girl for a little more than 2 months. Things were going really well until just a while ago.
She called me at night and said that 'she wasn't sure if everything was right'. I asked her about it, and she said that she still liked me. There was nothing I had done, and she hadn't bothered me.
But she said she just wanted time to think about it, and she wasn't sure about us.

At first I didn't know what to think. But then I remembered that she had told me that none of her relationships had lasted much longer than two months.
I think that she has a problem with commitment to long term relationships. It kind of sounds like it. And I've talked to her friends, who say the same thing.

What should I say to her?

I'm sorry that she needs to beat around the bush but I'll have the decency of being honest with you and translate "I need time" for you:

"I need time. Alot of it. Away from you."

You can approach her about her 'problem' or realise that it's not a problem as much as it is a plan to have various dating experiences with different people.
When she told you that, you should have understood that there was an implicit message.

I wouldn't be offended really or search for answers. It's clear that she wasn't looking for anything 'serious' so I hope you wern't too emotionally attached.

Best of luck. Don't linger and develop oneitis please!
