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.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
She seems like a nice girl, she will probably be more attractive (to me at least) if she has a good personality.stuka1939 said:
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

It's hard to judge because not much of her body is showing. Her first pic was mostly her face and it was 5-6. This pic looks much better. And if she has a decent body, smooth nice skin, etc., I could see her being maybe a 6-7.5. Not enough info..stuka1939 said:Christ, you guys are picky. Here is another one of her. I don't personally know this girl, but she is on the friends list of a girl I know.

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.
I'm not saying she is ugly based on some scale. She is a lovely looking girl, just not my cup of tea.stuka1939 said:Christ, you guys are picky. Here is another one of her. I don't personally know this girl, but she is on the friends list of a girl I know.

Thats because the site itself has brainwashed them into thinking they actually deserve hot chicks. Most of these dudes shouldn't be with anything better than a 4.Bible_Belt said:Did you see the Miss America thread where most guys said that she was a 7 or 8? Sosuave is hard to please.
Stuka1939 _ said:What about rating guys? IMO Colin Farrell is an easy 8 because he has a lot of scruff, but the Matt Damon is a perfect 10 because he's smaller and I can imagine doing lots of things to him - willing or unwilling.
That was a joke right? btw I'd say that the girl in this thread was a 7 and miss America was an 8.5 at most and that's not being too picky I'd be more than happy with an 8.5 I'm just saying that there are many hotter girls out there.Stuka1939 _ said:What about rating guys?
