"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.

What are your thoughts on all the rampant shoplifting?

"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.

If they go to more online shopping, we'll likely see an increase in people stealing packages off of people's porches.

A related thing I've noticed is the increase in airline violence. I remember for awhile after 9/11, the one thing you didn't want to do is act up on an airline, because they had zero tolerance for it, they had the air marshals, and they would cart you away. Now acting up on airlines seems routine.

Amazon used to promise 1 day deliver, but now almost all my orders are 2 days. I don't mind because I'm not ordering food. But if I'm ordering food or meds, I need it now.
I accidentally ordered Prime somehow on Amazon, but I've kept it since I wanted to try Prime Video anyway. I do like the shipping perks though. Anyway, yeah the one day is basically two day, and the two day is basically three day. You have to give them a day to ship it, and then two days after that you get it, so it's about three days. Better than the standard shipping though, which can take about 10 days.

So you're advocating for moving in alongside hordes of illegal alien ****heads and Chinese investors as police, fire, EMS and a few remaining human beings w/an ounce of common sense move out? Mad Max. Brilliant.

I don't venture into my city as much as I used too. Recent events in once considered 'safe' areas have discouraged me and the current political affairs have made it even more of a mess. The amount of lootings and riots that have taken place the past two years have painted a negative (but accurate) image. Break ins and shoplifting are becoming common place and even the trendier nicer areas are getting hit.

Not advocating. Do what you want bro.

A lot of people bought property in NYC in the 70s for peanuts. Sold in the 2000s for millions. Soho, LES, Park Slope. Neighborhoods that were slums but now posh. Not for the faint of heart. Takes balls and vision.
 

"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.

This is only really a problem in the urban areas of certain metros, particularly those who take a more "soft on crime" stance. This is a non-issue in the suburbs/more rural areas/metros where law and order are respected.

The stores will continue to operate brick and mortar where it's profitable, that's not changing. Obviously it's not profitable when theft is eating significantly into margins.

It's always the sheltered white normies who eventually become communists.

And then they realize just how well they lived as sheltered normies, but only after it's too late to go back.

The comforts of Western society has been taken for granted. Now these woke policies are turning our cities into warzones.

I just wish it would be ok to tackle shoplifters. Sadly we would be prosecuted.

would be cool to blindside a shoplifter in a Terry tate office football style tackle

Alissa Heinerscheid, currently on leave of absence from Bud Light, is a good example of this.

Privileged, sheltered white female who went to Harvard University for undergrad and the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business for an MBA. Both of those schools are elitist private schools.

It's not just sheltering that's the attractor, it's a sense of victimhood as well. And in Heinerscheid's case, ugliness. Smart, sheltered nerd types love the commies.

All you need is a local government prosecute the law, and these perps quit.

Well, she caused a net value drop (for the investors in InBev) in the billions, but she isn't a thief. :rolleyes:
 

"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.
