"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.

Where do you stand with your personal morals when, after some self improvement, girls who previously acted like you didn't exist suddenly want your attention?

I know stock answer will be "who cares, bang 'em", but what about niggling fact that you weren't good enough for them to even acknowledge x months ago? anyone else have the temptation to tell them to get the f!*k out of your face now they've shown how stuck-up and superficial they are?

Who's been here and which way did you go?
 

"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.

I wouldn't date them. I wouldn't date anybody. Truth is, it all depends on what you can offer them.
Human beings are selfish creatures, so I can't see myself with anybody until I get bored of doing things alone, which is gonna take awhile.

Do self improvement to improve yourself, not to get another person's attention.

To answer your question, I've been there.
My self improvement was better social skills.
I banged girls. That's what I did. All of this self improvement led me to a new life philosophy. If your thinking hasn't changed one bit and you've tried to do self improvement in every area, you're doing something wrong.
I'm not gonna tell you what to do. It's your decision. If I tell you, YOU'RE not doing the improvement or expanding your own self awareness.

Think on this. What do YOU think is the best thing to do?

Sneevox the thing I do is just look at them trying to talk to me with the "are you lost?" face. After all, now you know these girls aren't cripplingly shy, they literally ignore people they aren't attracted to. These people used to be you, they are your friends, colleagues, people you know are worth the time of day because you aren't a shallow f!*k.

I can't speak for all men, but I am perfectly pleasant to said girl in plates_empty's post before the boob/gym transformation.

Makes sense. I do find it humorous when people are upset that you don't find them attractive if they look like they put zero effort into their looks at almost all times.
Had a girl like that recently.
All of the beta chumps in my cast are like in love with her, though. It's hilarious.

-sigh- no attractive women.
funny thing, I've asked a lot of guys, and apparently the most attractive girl in the cast to them is this chick named Shannon. Shannon is maybe like a 5 (no tits, no ass, skinny with some flab, about 5'4", brunette, very tan) and she dresses nicely all the time... but she's 25 years old. I can't help but think it's no coincidence that, according to the SMV chart, she's in her sexual prime right now.

Funny how things work, though. Men age like wine, women age like fruit.
 

"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.
