"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.

Does anyone else wear these? I've made it a common accessory. I've always been known for wearing my vees. I have them in white and black (most common) and occasionally I will wear grey, blue, sometimes red, and when I feel ballsy a dark purple.

I know it seems a little "gay" and I used to get teased from my friends for it. But there is not an easier way to project sexuality, and the attention from woman is undeniable. If you can pull it off without people thinking you're a homosexual then go for it. I think it takes the right kind of build and person though. And you also have to project a sexual attitude towards woman when you talk, but when you project it through your clothing already then they become more receptive to you. Instead of getting "cute" compliments, I get "sexy" compliments.

If you're comfortable try a social experiment on it. See if it works for you like it did for me. In a way it's kind of like pee-****ing, but I don't believe in that nonsense. I started wearing them in the summer because they are comfortable and it gets hot sometimes, never stopped wearing them sense.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I wear them all the time. It seems only wannabe Alpha punks have a problem with them.

V-necks are awesome. Especially if you have the upper chest mass and arms to fill them out nicely. I get compliments on them all the time. Hell if I wear a cheap black one from foot locker (cost like 5-10 bucks). People will ask me "Why are you looking all fancy today?" . Cause they just look real stylish on a good body.

you have to have the right type of body to fill it out. Chest, arms, flat stomach
 

"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.

I never used to like em.

But now I wear V Necks all the time. Mainly in white and black. I agree if you have the right build for it, then go for it. There are some indie hipster variation v-neck t-shirts which extend the V shape near enough down to your stomach which I find gay. I've found, that out of all my expensive designer sweaters and tee's, the cheap plain v-neck t shirt fitted the best.

I don't see anything wrong with the average v neck tee. It's in style now, especially since all the a-list celeb rock n rollers, bands and rappers are wearing em. I just hate the V-neck tee, 80s nerd glasses, skinny jeans and fauxhawk fad.

I like wearing my Affliction t-shirts in the v-neck style. Usually spruce it up with a silver chain around my neck. Picked up a hot 35 year old mother of two last week with that gear on. Gotta be jacked up like me though. I have huge forearms and a big sexy chest. Of course you had better shave those two chest hairs that you have. Keep your chest nice and lubed. The mothers love it.

Another one of my things is ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS having clean shoes. I buy new shoes at least once a month. With the v-neck and shoes combined it's a cheap way of looking "stylish" without being considered overdressed. Girls also automatically assume I have a respectable income as well.

eh? buying shoes once a month are you friggin kidding me. If you want clean shoes just wash them.

I don't wear V necks because I'm skinny so it looks like crap but I think they're OK if you have the right body type.

:crackup:

I hate on the overly large v neck shirts but a traditional v neck is fine on the right person, I just hate those giant ones that go halfway down one's chest. I guess I just don't think guys need to show cleavage (even if you're ripped); save that for women to show off their goods.

"V" Neck T-Shirts are NOT gay, but shaving your chest...

I don't think guys should look like 70's porn actors and that they should trim the overgrowth, but shaving and/or waxing your chest or legs or arms just ain't right.

Agree. I have 5 or 6 and always get complimented on them. Need to have a nice chest, a nice V shaped form as well.
 

"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.

At 37 and in America I can only imagine what you are getting :nervous: . I suspect that some of your "gf's" have sons with more chest hair than you. By looking at the demographics of America these days you are probably dating broads with more chest hair than you.

You have no idea what you are talking about.... still. His girlfriend is hot and young. I was hoping you'd stop drinking hatorade and become a little classier but I guess not all things get better with age.

Padron Reserve maduro in hand while finishing my b
I'm a big dude.

V-neck sweaters and T-shirts help to accentuate my chest (not fvcking hairless either. I'm a caveman for Christsakes!), my shoulders, and draw the eye downward.

V-necks also show the top of my Karmic Kross tattoo. Gives the b!tches a peek at the goods. The goal is to feed them, not fatten them up.

I've always had issues finding shirts that fit... I'm 5'8" currently in the low 190s at 12% bodyfat (caliper tested). I wear size 32" pants. My shoulder girdle is around 54" and chest is 42-44". I'm sure you guys can see how this can pose problems, as clothing typically isn't made for someone with my weird measurements.

I have fairly pronounced traps as well, and I don't really like how a lot of "normal neck" shirts make me look like a "no neck". V-necks are great for guys like me.
 

"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.
