"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.

The key to getting rid of your frustration with women

Give Value

Simple as that. These 2 simple words have been the biggest lesson I've learnt from my dad, @da dynamically and another friend of mine (who happens to be one of the most charismatic people I know).

Why most people are frustrated with women or even life in general its because they operate within a frame where the world is a zero-sum game. There must always be a winner and loser, 50/50 and it sucks when you don't get what you want. The woman has to lose in order for you to win, you feel frustrated when the efforts you put in don't result in the reward you want i.e sex.

The true charismatics operate within the frame of value-giving because they inherently know that giving value to everyone results in gaining more value for themselves. To put this into analogy, a VC can invest $200,000 into 10 start-ups. All he needs is one start-up to break the market to recoup his $2m investment and bring him more than that. True, there will still be losers but there will be more winners as a whole.

So how does one give value and unplug oneself from the zero-sum matrix? Today, I'll share what has worked for me so far in my life and has actually liberated a lot of my frustrations with women flaky behavior.

1. Recognize what inherent value you have. Are you a positive person? Share that. Are you a good conversationalist? Share that. For a start, write down a list of values that today, if you are stripped to your underwear, what value do you bring to other people? If you find nothing there, its time to start getting to work and really reflect as to what is your inner raw self. These values must be something that nobody can take away from you.

Personally, what do I bring to the table with women? A good time, an opportunity for them to experience their full sexuality without judgement, opportunities to grow and develop spiritually as a human being, these are the core beliefs I have when I'm out on a date. I look to improve them and in return I always get something in return, be it sex, good feelings, working on expressing myself, finding areas to improve. Every time I give value to someone, I recognize I am getting something back to grow myself.

Rejected? I'll reflect and see where I can improve
Flaked on? Oh well, there's always others excited to receive my value
She's not ready for a relationship? I'm trying to take something from her rather than giving her a good time, quit the value-taking frame

2. Mingle with people who give value to others selflessly. You are an average of the 5 people you spend the most time with, choose wisely as it fits your current needs. Like attracts like. Be with value giving people and you will magically see yourself gaining more value that you can imagine which you can share with others outside of your circle.

Take it for what you will, and feel free to add to this post. Embrace the value-giving mindset today.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Interesting topic. I think the key to getting rid of frustration with women is to stop chasing after people you are not naturally compatible with.

A lot of guys play this dumb "make her like me" game where they invest money, time and energy into creating a bullsh*t facade to impress a woman who doesn't naturally like them. I guess this is what PUA was founded on. Being fake. These guys don't realize this behavior is very conformist and assaulting their own self-image.

Frustration in relationships can be a sign that you are either a fake person or desperate person. A frustrating relationship is usually the wrong relationship. Desperate people stay in relationships that are not right for them. Women want to enter the world of a strong man. They are not attracted to desperate guys putting on a clown show to impress them.

OP is right, and, in fact, giving value is among the things that RSD teaches now. I had great results practicing it, and one of major breakthroughs for me was when I understood that the idea of value for me is different than idea of value for girls. Some girls respond well when they understand that you're dating other girls, some girls respond well to being authentic and not caring about them etc.

I'm a little tired of hearing that all you have to do is give value. Even in a business environment that isn't always enough.
 

"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.

I prefer to get away from all economic categories altogether. The problem with people's understanding towards relationships today is they have become increasingly marketized/ commodified. How about the two words 'be authentic'.
