"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.

Top 10 reasons why Guys (and Girls) get dumped.

http://shine.yahoo.com/love-sex/top-10-reasons-why-were-dumped-200900432.html


I love that "Bad hygiene" is the #2 reason that men dump girls. I'm trying to figure out what that REALLY means....Stinky vag? She gave him chlamydia?

Oh, and the #1 reason that girls dump guys?

::drum roll::

Ah, f**k it, you guys already know - "There's someone else."

Women are some branch-swinging little monkeys aren't they...
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Ah yes, there's someone else.

It should be the easiest one to swallow, but they usually never admit that's the reason.

Even when we know that's the reason we still know we weren't perfect so we question what we might have done differently.

Too hairy. :D

I don't care for the reasons I am dumped, if I am dumped, then I am dumped. I swallow that bitter pill and soldier on with life.

"There's someone else."

well duh, what decent looking girl is ever single for more than a couple months tops, none!

so they are either falling in love insanely easily OR they are branch swinging.

Love is the opium of the mind. It doesn't exist which is why people waste their lives chasing after it.

Those who chase the concept of love are insecure people who deserve nothing but the scruff of loneliness until their dying day.
 

"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.

Love definitely exists. It's not what people think though. It's just a glimpse of forever, it doesn't last forever.

We still seek it regardless, so we are likely to find it even if we don't know exactly what it is.

Interesting... "Nice" isn't on there. Probably cause its not a reason. Just taken out of context. "You're a nice guy, but [real reason they don't give]". Guess you can't blame the guys for thinking its BECAUSE you're nice - when they don't give you **** else.

wth does "too short" mean? did they shrink during the relationship? did they go from being 5'10" to 5'5" in 2 months or something? i thought height was a deal breaker in the beginning, not in the middle of a fvcking relationship.

It sounds like one of those dumb things girls say after the fact. Like, there were 20 reasons why the relationship didn't work, but all she can blurt out is "He was too damn short."
 

"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.

haha yeah and two days, two weeks, or two months later you'll see the same ol' hoebag on the arm of a guy AS short, if not shorter then the guy she dumped for being "too short".

The reason "nice" isn't on this list is because the whole "nice" thing is completely overstated by the pickup community.

For some reason, PUAs seem to think every man's problem with women is that he's too nice. When in reality there are a lot of different reasons guys have trouble with women.

You go through all this trouble turning yourself into a jerk, when maybe all you really need to do is take a bath.

"Nice" is a term women use to encompass an array of reasons why a man is not appealing and consequently desexualized. The PUA community overemphasizes the focus women place on "nice guys." In other words, although most of the time the term refers to a male not qualified to fulfill the logical and subconscious desires of a female, sometimes it may also genuinely signify a quality rather than a negative trait.

Don't go into mechanical mode and always have the same reaction to the term "nice"--take the tone, body language of the speaker, and the context of the conversation into consideration before making an inference. And if all else fails you can always ask "what did you mean by that?" If you get the nice guy speech tied to something negative, then you know what that means. If she gives you positive traits and associates them with the term nice, then you are gold.

Keep being money,

-Rob

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
