Need an update soon!
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.
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.

When will you get it through your head that all she wants is more business. Does she need to make a big banner for you with a parade? FFS.....Originally posted by Jayer
Then she says she is going to be at the same strip club we met at and asked me if I would come....
Those are the 3 wisest things u have said on this threadOriginally posted by Jayer
I don't think I am going to call her.
But I am not about to risk my life....

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

It just sucks because one of my dreams was to have sex with a stripper...B]
Not really pathetic... 80% (something like that) of men have fantacy's about having sex with a stripper/sl*t etc.... And I'm sure a good Percentage of those men WOULD do it if they got the opportunity.... Hell, i am known to have HIGH standards when it comes to women, and even I have considered it in the past. Its normal.Originally posted by TillTheEndOfTime
Wow you really aim high. That's pathetic.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
