"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.

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.

I don't think I would do it without at least some kind of idea that you might get something in return.

I had two chicks ask me to take her out that day. The first one I have actually gotten a little play from. The second one is pretty much just a friend (although she has been mighty frisky lately!).

I actually called girl #1 to ask if she still wanted to go out that day. She said she didn't remember us talking about it so she had made plans to babysit someones kid. She was pretty drunk both times she mentioned it so I can buy her story. She even tried to arrange for us to go out this coming weekend instead. Point is, I was willing to take this one out because I would have likely gotten some action in return.

The other one....well.....there's a possibily of getting some from her also, but I've known her for years and I wouldn't take a chance on spending more than a few bucks on her without any kind of a clear idea that I would be rewarded.

I know it sounds bad, but that's the way it is. If you aren't romantically involved with a chick why would you want to reward her on this mother-of-all chick holidays, without getting something in return?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

Sit back, relax with a beer. No need to jump for joy to get a date with another ho on a hallmark card holiday.

Son, let me tell you something a wise man once told me:

S.Y.M.

Save Your Money.

Investment versus return = Don't commit to buy anything that wont show a dividend. This girl wont show one and V-Day is an occasion just swimming in opportunities if you know which rocks to look under.

Valentine's Day is ripe with opportunity for the DJ with the ability to see it. Go hit the clubs tonight, particularly the ones that cater to a 25-40 y.o. affluent crowd. You'll notice impromptu GNOs (girl's night out) set up just for this occasion to prove to themselves "they don't need men to have a good time." A good PUA couldn't arrange a better opportunity to hook up in multiple sets.

Don't go play 'pity friend' with any girl tonight. Call up your best wing man and sarge on the best night of the year to sarge. Wedding receptions aren't even as good as V-Day for this.

Re: V-Day Question....

If you're paying for dinner, definitely not. If they are truly "just friends", go out with them for a beer or two, and exploit them as pivots and social proof. Don't pay for the beer either lol.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

we have a winner

i'm taking a 7.5 out for dinner, an 8.5 out for drinks, and if nothing happens with the drinks, i've got an HB9 who wants to hang out "just as friends and to be my designated driver," perfect pivot material! :D

Don't worry, even though I didn't take anyone out, my night was pretty sh!tty too. I got the pleasure of hanging out with a girl who used half a dozen four letter words within the first 30 seconds of meeting her, claimed to be a porn star who had done 300 and some odd movies, and poured a shot of Jager into my delicious Belgian beer. Needless to say I didn't ask for her number...
