"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.

Man, that red curry sounds delicious. Is Asian food prominent in Germany? I was told the Netherlands had like one Chinese restaurant.

"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.

Here's a good meal for when you guys are constipated from all that protein. It takes a long time to cook, but it makes meals that cost about 25-50 cents and have a massive amount of fiber.

One bag, your choice of dried lentils, green split peas, or any dried beans. Cover with a generous amount of water and bring to a boil.
Add:
a splash of oil, I use olive oil
a big spoonful of fresh chopped garlic
Worcestershire Sauce
Soy Sauce
Bacon Bits - the real kind, I like Hormel brand
black pepper
a good amount of salt, and you'll probably end up adding more.
Sirachi Red Chili Sauce and/or jalepeno peppers if you like hot stuff

After it's boiling, reduce to a low boil and simmer 2-3 hours. I like anything dried to be cooked a long time. The peas and lentils will break down on their own. Sometimes with beans I will use a stick blender when they are done to give them the right consistency.

A word about dried beans, when you soak or boil them, the white foam on the top of the water is what gives you gas. White beans are good with a little chopped up ham steak, but if I ever enter a farting competition, that is definitely my pre-game meal.

You can eat any of these by themselves, or over rice. Black beans are good with cheese or any salad dressing as a topping. I tend to eat leftovers cold in the summer months.

I just picked a handful of collard greens from the garden and ate them for dinner with some rice. I looked them up, and holy sh!t this stuff is healthy: http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=138

I cooked a bag of boil-in-bag brown rice first, chopped up the collards and added them to a pan with a little water. To that I added garlic, 1/3 stick of butter, bacon bits, black pepper, soy sauce, and salt. The water keeps the butter from burning. Cook them down until they taste ok, then add the rice. I put Tony Cachere's seasoning salt on the rice as well.

The butter is 250 calories, the rice 300, and the collards about 100. That's a 600 calorie meal, and I couldn't eat all of it. And it cost me less than a dollar.
