"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.

ok as some of you might know, i'm at a new highschool, i sit with these these girls at lunch these couple days (i know them from work) anyways there is like 5 girls at the table, i'm pretty social with them, and they think i'm a hilarious guy (that's what they told my friend from work) anyways i sat with them 2 times so far, so i'm interested in one of the girls, should i ask her out as soon as possible, or build some rapport between us?

also i work out on my lunch, but these last 2 days the gym was closed that's why i got to sit with the girls, the gym is closed on fridays, should i put my "priorities" first and keep goin the gym everday except gym, and show some balls, or just go sit with them and have fun, and build some rapport?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

No, just ask her out, don't "tell her that you like her" jesus h christ

Say "Hey, by the way, are you free this friday? Let's grab a coffee." or whatever

You're asking if you should go sit with them to build rapport. You seem to have some sort of limiting belief that this is in any way necessary.

You should need anywhere from zero to fifty words in total to make a girl attracted to you. Once you've done that, you can:

- become more scarce/challenging to increase her interest level if you think this is needed

and then/or

- ask her out

I know there are a lot of guys on here whose advice to everyone is "just kiss her" "just tell her you like her" "just ask her out".

Well that's great. If you want to listen to their advice, fine. But if you actually have some concern with getting this particular girl rather than just the experience of rejection, try taking my advice.

My advice is to judge her interest level first, if it's not high enough, then in Style's words, pump the buying temperature, AND THEN ask her out.

EDIT: and in general, you're not going to pump the buying temperature by spending a few HOURS extra talking to her unless you REALLY know what you're doing.

I haven't seen many people who generate MORE interest by blabbering at her or letting her blab.

You too, when you think it is a bad idea to tell/show a girl that you like her. ;)
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I give advice that is actually relevant to the OP.

Maybe YOU can tell a girl that you like her. I can too. But I know how to say it in such a way that I don't come off like a dumbass.

Do you trust the OP to do that?

That´s great to hear.

Sorry, what is an OP? If you mean the thread starter: yes I trust him to do that.

And even if he would come across as a dumbass, next time he will come across less as a dumbass and next next time, he will be able to say it with the same great effect like you and me. ;)

But again: I trust him. :)

Do it AS YOU'RE LEAVING like an afterthought. And don't linger. Or stay for a long time. Or be a dumbass.

Actually, just tell me where in the world you're going to do this and send me a PayPal for $1000, and I'll be there in a jiffy to stand next to you and b!tch slap you if you do anything stupid. :D

do an actio date. movies are out. anything that involves talking for overly long periods of time is out.

Take her bowling or rollerskating or something that is fun, but doesn't seem like a date cliche.
 

"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.

I'm 22 and I gave you a radius. I'm not giving out my city on an Internet forum. How do I know you're not an axe murderer? Lol

You can PM me your MSN if you want to talk privately.
