"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.

So how should one deal with text messaging? If there's a thread on this already, can someone point me in the right direction?

I personally hate text messaging, but all chicks text. Some people tell chicks that they don't have texting enabled on their phone, but that's neither believable nor positive, because you don't want to look like a grandpa and refuse to text, especially to younger chicks...

Some chick flaked on me last week thru a text message and I'm pretty sure that I should just forget about her, but next time I run into her I don't want to seem bitter at her cancelling a date. We'd been having sex for a while, but I think that's irrelevant... actually, not totally irrelevant... I'd like to keep her around if only as a booty call.

And what if you've exchanged a moderate amount of texts with some chicks? How do you phase them out? I hate making plans over texts, even the iPhone pisses me off...
 

"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.
