"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.

I always go to court for minor tickets, and have always walked out with 0 points.

If the cop didn't show up, it was dismissed.

Otherwise, I just accepted the plea deal, and either "paid court costs" or got a reduced 0 point charge, paid my money, and kept my record clean.

Bottom line (at least here in Michigan): pay the ticket without going to court and the points are guaranteed; go to court with a good record, and it's been my experience you're likely to come out better and save lots of $$$ on your insurance.
 

"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.

I'm in a very similar situation. I got a failure to stop ticket coming home from school. The cop said I slowly rolled through. This sucks because I got a speeding ticket on the very same road a few months before and I used my traffic school but now I'm not eligible. The fucking fine is $158. To make matters even worse I got a speeding ticket on thanksgiving evening on a freeway for going the speed of traffic. The speed limit was 55 and I was going 70 and so was everybody else. The notice still hasn't reached my house I hope it wasn't sent.

I got no idea what happened these past few months. I've been driving since I was 18 with a perfect record and now I got 3 tickets in 4 or so months. Only two are going to be on my record but I don't have a clue how they are going to affect me.

I'm planning on fighting the stop sign ticket. I know I stopped. The fucking cops are setting up road traps trying to catch the college kids coming from school. Every day there are at least two cops just parked there trying to catch people who run the stop sign or speed. Don't they have something better to do with their time?

Anyways my court date on the notice says 12/17. I can only show up that day between 12:30 pm and 1:30 pm. Luckily for me I have two finals that day :rolleyes: I can also show up Tuesday - Thursday before 8:30 am. Wow this system is really designed to screw you.

I'm no lawyer, but I doubt you could win if you challenge a cop's word. If you already have points, it's likely to save you money in the long run by hiring an attorney. That's what I did when I got nailed in a bad speed trap, and I'm very glad I did, because it saved me 4 points, and probably thousands of dollars in insurance costs...
