"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.

Now see? I have learned something I didn’t know. Sillage. What a great noun. Narcisse left quite a sillage. I got stopped constantly by men & women both wanting to know what fragrance I was wearing. Thanks @DonJuanjr

Cheers
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I film those sort of videos for living. They are marketing horse****. Don't believe anything they say. It's written by a bunch of marketing guys who can't get laid then given to the man in charge to read from a script. He inputs his 2 cents, while listening to what needs to be said to sell more stuff. People don't climb the top of the industry ladder by being true to themselves and speaking truth.

I got lucky with my skin type I guess. Jovan and ck1 smell great on me. Will try the creed knock-off just out of curiosity. I took my Mrs around for a sniff test. Chanel bleu got the tick

Bleu de Chanel EDP is a compliment-getter, wherever you go. One of the most popular on the planet.

To anyone who doesn't mind spending $325 on a fragrance, Baccarat Rouge 540 by Maison Francis Kurkjian is a boss.

@BeExcellent your guy should check this out. They have it at Nordstrom and Saks. You'll be able to sample.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Lol and just who is Narcisse?

I usually pick Adolf when I need a random name myself. We all have our quirks.

Reminds me of SUV commercials, where they show some grocery getter driving up the side of a mountain. Same sh!t, different pile.

Anyone use Sex Panther?

Even though I use aftershave, definitely thinking men are kidding themselves if they think it plays any real part in attracting women. I've had women compliment how great I smell in bed when I have nothing but loreal deodorant on.

I think its very much the icing the cake rather than something that creates any kind of attraction.
 

"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.

She gets a special cologne. It’s called Sex Panther by Odeon. It’s illegal in nine countries. Yep, it’s made with bits of real panther, so you know it’s good.

Yeah, they've done studies, you know. 60% of the time it works, every time.

It's a formidable scent. It stings the nostrils, in a good way.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

It’s a perfume. Narcisse by Chloe is a perfume. It’s discontinued some years ago.
