"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.

- clean skin (also need some help here, what to do, products to use, etc)

- facial hair (yes or no)

- good cologne (currently im using Acqua di Gió by Giorgio Armani)

"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 dont think your 'looks' are the main factor per se.
I think you must have some sort of quality in your interactions that is affecting them.
Perhaps you are not confident enough. Passionate enough. Maybe you're too self deprecating? Seeking approval? Easily offended and too 'hurt' by others?
Look too much for acceptance and approval?
Have no passions or hobbies? Maybe you feel unworthy and inadequate?
Do you have a short temper? Ashamed of sexuality?


Im pretty sure what is happening is that you are somehow not conveying much self respect or self esteem to others. Thus, making you an easier target to bully and pick on.

There's a lack of respect here.


Are you offensive, arrogant, and insulting to women? Or Are you a loyal and trustworthy person?

These are things you have to reflect on for yourself.

I dont believe it has anything to do with your appearance.

This entire post is the reason I wrote my book in the first place. Anyway, i'll give you a detailed break down here of what I thought:

Don't take the following as insults to your ego, just learn what you need to change.

- First impression was that you looked like you would fade in the background. That is you don't look dangerous, unique and there's no style that attracts the eye.
- You looked a bit nerdy, not sure what job/field you are into but you need your style definately, so you're on the good path now.
- You seem to be thinning, so get rid of the extra hairs there and shave it all offfff... it looks ridiculous when guys do comb-overs. Shave it to the skull
- You definately need more masculine energy in your body. Even your posture gives away lack of masculinity. You should be hitting the gym ASAP and get 30-40lbs of muscle on yourself. It's not too hard, will take some time but it's totally possible.
- Your clothes don't have any organized style or anything attractive about them. That lose grey t-shirt is about as bad as it can get bro.

Women love colour, they love contrast. This doesn't mean you dress like a fag, but you need to learn to mix and match colours which attract their eyes. Such as blue/white or black/red. Also you gotta buy more fit stuff.

There's a long list of other things I would change but those should get you started for now.

oh.. about the facial hair. try a goattee and a tan, but keep the head shaven. believe me. it may look a bit weird to you, but it looks better to the rest of the world.

I think you look perfectly fine exactly the way you are. Don't get an earring, don't shave your hair off. Absolutely not. In fact when a lot of people see guys with shaved heads the first thought that comes to mind is that they must have been balding and they are self-conscious. It's the classic coverup.

But my one tip would be- dress better.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Imo guys who go to tanning salons are kind of queers. I see a lot of guys with orange skin with highlights in their spiked hair and my first thought is f a g. Get your tan naturally from the sun.

Two most important things for women are height and hair. which unfortunately men can't change. The hair - see a doctor, your height - get ripped but not too ripped.

Everything else look at tv, magazines, movies.

Interesting you mention that. I got a goattee with really short hair.

But, anyways. I think Interceptor and Metaphysical said it well.

Also, I'm 6'2 and like 160lbs. So, Im pretty skinny. Sure, women like "buff" guys. But, even with my skinny body (which I love no matter what) I still pull women.

Remember... Women aren't based on looks like we are with women.

they are. they just don't attach as much importance to looks as men do with women. women always check out guys and comment on if their hot or not. if that guy approaches he'll have an easier time.

Mmm yeah it might be a little hard to get a tan if you live in a place that's overcast and rainy most of the year. My first thought is F A G.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
