"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.

Is there like a glossary of terms for this forum? I've gotten most but I see women being ranked, eg HB8 ... meaning?
 

"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.

HB stands for hot babe. However, it is used generically for any decent looking female. She doesn't necessarily have to be hot. Her hotness or lack thereof is given by the number after HB. It's the classic one through 10 scale. 7 is considered cute and doable. 8 is very cute. 9 is smoking hot. 10 is supermodel perfection. Below 7 can be doable. Just don't tell your friends lol. Finally, these appraisals are best performed sober lol.

So an HB8 is a very cute, bordering on hot female.

This system is not necessarily meant to objectify women, but to put the pickup attempt in context for the readers. If for example, a guy writes that he made out with some HB (and no number is included), the reader will wonder what she looked like.

Ha so anything under 7 would be a MB (moderate babe) and below 5 a UB (ugly). Just kidding.

Thanks.

5 should be moderate cause 5 is the middle of 1 and 10 then anything above 5 is doable in my opinion

pualingo.com and urbandictionary.com are good resources for pickup terminology
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

B+8 = bait so it means "hot bait"

I don't really understand the point of the term, TBH.

But apparently it's still in use
