"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.

theres this girl ive been really interested in

problem is, she's taken, ive been working on the attraction and definitely think there's something there, she knows im interested but won't leave her man for me, which is good, i dont want an easy swayer.

anyway, im leaving for good soon to canada and want to leave a good last impression so that once her relationship ****s up, she can remember the good times we had and maybe give me a call.

i have 2 options, either say it to her face, or leave a message.

im not to sure what so say, should i be funny? or should i be serious that ive fallen for her and would wait for years for her call and would fly right back to her?

my problem is i think ive overdone the ****y/comedy part to the extent she thinks im 'up myself', im learning, but she does enjoy me being around and laughs alot. should i write a heartfelt romance letter? or should i be funny and let her know she's missing out big time etc/

advice is greatly appreciated.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Commodore,

I can relate to what you are going through. 2 years ago I had this oneitis for this girl just before I had to travel to another place. At that time, I thought it was a good idea to confess my feelings to her even though I knew nothing would come out of it because of the long-distance thing. I never got to doing that but kept chatting with her on IM for the next several months with me always iniating the conversations. Living in the new place made exposed me to new girls and interest in her started to diminish. After a while I started questioning what I had been seeing in her in the first place. This is to point of not even making an effort to see her when returning back. All she is now is a figment of the past. What I am trying to say is that don't do anything, she won't mean anything to you as time passes by.

Just My 2 cents...

Tell her to keep in touch and call you if things don't work out between her and her current bf.

You've fallen for a girl in a relationship?

Thinking she will come to you when/if it ends for anything other than comfort, re-assurance and general 'rebound' stuff is fairy tale.

I'd forget she existed and look forward to meeting some chicks in Canada - don't dwell on this one.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Hmmm, i have a similar thing,

I have a good friend who is leaving for America on Thursday (We live in Aus).

Even though we a good friends, we do have a little bit of attraction going on.

This used to be a major one-itis but i got over it, thing is, because it's her, i am prone to act a little AFC.

I don't actually know how long she'll be away for, either a month, or a little over a year, she has some dance interview thing.

Anyway, i plan to play it smooth, i'm going to see her on Wednesday night, i'll probably try a kiss, fool around a bit, lots of C&F, just leave a good impression.

If it was a normal chick, i wouldn't give half an ass, but i've know her for 8 years, her and her brother are the two people that have known me for the longest amount of time outside of family, so, because she's a friend, i'm going to put a little effort into making Wednesday night a good one.

I suggest you do the same, just fool around, play it cool, and try to get a kiss close, then leave.

Best impression i reckon.
