You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
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.
Because chloroform leaves women more conscious than when they're tapping away on their cell phone! :cheer:Iceberg said:Why not just use a bottle of chloroform?
Well, you should know that cell phone jammer are illegal in many countries, states. Cell phone jammers are not allowed for private use.Rubato said:Hey guys, I was talking to my uncle last night and he's a pretty eccentric dude. He's a conspiracy theorist/tech junkie guy, and he was telling me he just got a portable that allegedly jams all 2g/3g/4g/ CDMA and GSM cell transmission within 100 yards. At first I didn't see why there would be any utility to own something like that, unless you want to commit a crime.
But.
I started to think. Cell phones, I think, are one of the biggest things that have ruined night game. Girls show up somewhere, get out their phones, and either text all their friends where they are so they can join her, or just text. Text, text, text, text. I'm thinking about borrowing it this weekend and seeing what results I notice. Do you guys think that passively disabling every girl's cell phones in a given bar or club would make game any easier?

The girl would be so focussed on why her cellphone isn't working rather than talking to you.Rubato said:Hey guys, I was talking to my uncle last night and he's a pretty eccentric dude.

Phone jammer is an interesting and helpful device when we don’t want to be bothered by the cell phone noise. I just bought myself a phone jammer the other day, it is working great and BTW, it’s legal here in my country.Rubato said:Hey guys, I was talking to my uncle last night and he's a pretty eccentric dude.

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.
