"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.

So theres this girl that i've been tryin to get with. Not really trying, but just being me. Shes attractive and i wouldn't mind a chance with her but i hadn't really liked her like as a gf. I've been keeping it C&F ever since like two or three weeks ago, and i dont take any of her bull so if she calls me out i ''hit'' right back. Everyone thought it was funny and that i was the man and stuff but as it went on I went into butthole mode. Not kool, i took it a lil too far so had to tone it down. Well through all this, i'n the back of my head i'm like ''i want her and i think i like her'' and at one point (since like everyone is like ''yall would make such a cute couple'' and "i can feel the tension") she asks me if i like her, and she was being all serious about it but she asked me at the lunch table and i was shocked that she asked me right then and there so i was like "ummm...lets talk about that later''(went blank when she asked me) and then a couple of days later i was in her chair and she was liek 'get up' and i just patted my lap and she sat down. I've tried that for like ever on her just playin around and she did it this time and i was like no way and she doesn't do that with any other guys. Theres another thing though, shes a big flirt and tease with other guys which plants little seeds of doubt but then i think of her askin me that question and the whole lap thing.

At this point i just wanna tell her that i like her and if she likes me too. Cause this one's got me confused. Straight up like that 'cause i'm tired of playin her games (all nice to me and stuff and plays back one day and the next day its like get away from me or dont talk to me) . Plus everyone is like, ask her out already and all that good stuff. Is this a good idea, or do yall have any other ideas that aren't passive but not too agressive.

"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.

hmm..i wouldn't tell her you like her verbally, rather just show it....ask her to hang out on a weekend...go out jsut you 2...or if her friends are friends with your friends get a group gathering and just make a move...and if you go in for the kiss and it works pull away and say "does that answer your question?" and w/o letting her answer just go rigth back to kissing her...it'll get her to think and she'll enjoy it that much more.

Yeah, follow the date routine, coffee...or golfing, or something. She sounds like a big flirt and it probably won't work, but it doesn't hurt to try.

Just show her more-than-normal flirtacious attention for awhile (this could mean a couple days). Then ask her out (in any way you want).

It will make it seem "natural", imo.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

if she is a serious flrt with other guys in front of you then i would have second thoughts before asking her out, if a girl finds you attractive, then she would bag the flirting up in front of you.
