I took a girl out i met outside to dinner and a club with her friend a couple weeks ago. Did some hugging, dancing, just in each other's arms. I end up glancing at her facebook and finds out she has a boyfriend. I havent taken her out since the first time i took her out but i havent let her know that i know she has a boyfriend. i still have her number. Should i bring it up and how? Im 25, she's 20. i dont wanna let her know i saw her facebook
"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.
take chick out on date, later finds out...

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Go ghost and seem uninterested. She has a boyfriend anyway so she's out of bounds. By not mentioning you know and just not really seeming to care will make her feel like you're superior. Well maybe not superior but she will see you as a lot cooler than saying you stalked her profile and see she has a boyfriend.
Most chicks I know don't list their status at all, I've only seen one who ever used "It's Complicated" either. I did have one who was going out of her way to get my attention but when I took a look her profile mentioned that she was married so I stopped responding to it (I don't mess with married chicks, period.) Interestingly a while later that status vanished but I wasn't going to waste any more time on her anyway. I did see her wearing a ring or two later on but that doesn't mean much, there are quite a number of single women out there who wear a ring on the wedding finger either because they want to ward off guys or because they're ignorant and don't realize the message they're sending until they complain about never getting asked out and someone points out why.Tiguere said:
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

She'll bring him up and keep him around and talk about him a lot if she's not attracted to you.
Go for the lay and spin more plates. That's the best thing that is for you. So ordered.
