"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.

Okay, this isn't really hypothetical, but you can imagine that it is if you like.

If you call a girl and she's in the middle of something, like say working out, and tells you she will call you back, but doesn't, what's the best plan of action?

I plan on not calling her again because It's like the game "tag", and she's it. If she's not calling me back, she's not playing correctly and she's disqualified. If she doesn't call me, I take it as a direct correlation to low interest, so why waste more of my time on a chick with low IL, right?

Just looking for some thoughts on this one.

Thanks!
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

We've been seeing each other for a couple of weeks. We've gotten down and dirty, but not quiet to the point of knockin' boots. If she would have let me do it that early, I would have been long gone. I don't want a 'ho'e.

When this happens, it brings on the suspense. It's like you want to call so bad, but if you do, you've basically handed her your power. It's very hard to do, and at the same time you feel like something is wrong with you.

In my mind, calling her would be pushy, and we all know what being pushy does.

It's tough to handle sometimes. When you're not experiencing it, you can think of all kinds of reasons why it shouldn't bother you. When you are experiencing it, there's inner turmoil and self doubt.

What I really need to be thinking is "man, she blew it". Because if I had any dignity, I'd protect it from being trampled from such disinterest.

She'll contact you.. Just chill out. Its not the end of the world! She'll get curious and wonder why you didnt chase her up.
 

"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.

There is a difference between high, medium and low interest girl.

Low interest girl could tell you that she is working out and says she will call you back but "forgets" to call.

Medium interest girl could tell you that she is working out and says she will call you back and she does.

High interest girl, could tell you that she is working out but will take a break from her workout to talk to you.

Yeah don't call her back that will make you look like a chump.
Just wait for her to call you back. IF she doesn't well then
you know she has no interest anymore.

What about the fact that girls like to test?

Girls with high interest just don't take that kind of risk. There are sh1t tests out there that will slowly emerge as you get to know the girl, but this isn't one of them.
I must have done something to lose her interest.
 

"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.

So, asking her if she's mad at me is out of the question?

I just realized that I added her to facebook today and I had a picture of me hugging a girl I was dating.

And leave the picture up.
Okay, I'll do it. Don't worry.

I deleted her number completely because I didn't want the temptation to call or text. If I don't have her number, I can't do anything. Saves me from a lot of trouble.

Good move.
 

"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.

Honestly though, I dont understand why this topic keeps coming up. There are threads like this being posted every day, and they all get the same answers.

Unless its the OP's first time on this forum (which it's obviously not, by far), he should know the answer, which is: 'it doesnt matter if she calls or not, because your time is valuable, and you have plenty of other things to do, and you will not wait for anyone. If she does not wish to be a part of your life, then there are other women who will be more than happy and grateful to. Hopefully for her, she will call you before you have replaced her.'

Nothing. She said she would call back, so she'll back if she's interested.

Right.


Thanks!

Try not to look at it as a game and keeping score. You won't be able to have a relationship with any girl that way. You are supposed to take her out and have fun with her, make her be happy she's with you, entertain her. Not keep tabs on the amount of negs she gives you or what you said and she didn't.

:cuss:

It shouldn't be about her letting you do it dude. If you both have the attraction and she knows you won't judge her, then game on. It doesn't matter how 'early on' it is.

I suggest you read the DJ Bible over and over again.

"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.
