why do TV daytime sitcom producers have male characters with long hair like fabio? Do women like this kind of style ? These guys have long hair that aren't tied at the back. 
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.
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
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.
Fvck you dude... like Fabio's the only dude that ever had long hair, just like Telly Savalis was the only dude that ever had a shaved head...

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
That's what most people think.diplomatic_lies said:Actually when I see someone with long hair, I think they're either goths, or druggies.
Thats a bunch of bull**** too. It depends on the chick. Women who dig long hair don't always fall in a certain stereotype. Its really shortsighted to say "only goth women like guys with long hair" or "only hippie chicks". I've had positive comments on my hair from several different kinds of women- both times I had it long(now and back in High school).Bvbidd said:If you want chicks, just keep your hair cut. Not saying it needs to be cut short short short, it doesn't. But when it gets to the point of needing to be tied back or whatever, that is a turn off to girls. Most anyways - Female Goths and Druggies are still around.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
What the heck is tall hair?seanchai said:Long hair is sexy; tall hair is the fúcking sexiest thing a man can do to his head. Ask any girl. Short hair is for sheep!
Have you got any pics of you or someone else who sports that look? I'm pretty curious, since I have not really understood what you meandoctoroxygen said:Medium-length hair blow-dried straight up so it's tall and huge and aggressive. I used to wear my hair like that, with astonishing results, but the funny thing about hair is that it just keeps growing.
Exactly. My girlfriend is one of the most innocent girls in the world, not hippie, goth or other stereotypes, she was virgin at 16 when I met her, but she fell in love with me right because I had longhair. Since I cut it, she says that she doesn't like me physically that much and that I should grow it out again.manbearpig said:Thats a bunch of bull**** too. It depends on the chick.

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.
