"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.

Why do girls have this reaction to me?

Hi

A bit about myself. I'm six foot two hit the gym and Iam told (not by family) that Iam pretty goodlooking. Yet women in general seem to dislike me:woo:

I don't know how I do it , I have friends (male ones) but Iam very very shy. I suffer from a body image disorder so I find it difficult to string two words together.And it doesn't help when strangers ask if I have a girlfriend and when I say no they think Iam Gay or something.

I'll give you an example of what Iam talking about. I was in a supermarket today. And I was trying to open a plastic bag to put some bread in . These two girls noticed this I think and one says ' Does he need some help?' and the other one goes (no I think he needs some mental help though!!).Now this girl in question works in this supermarket and I do catch her glancing at me at times . I kind of thought it might be because she knew me from somewhere but I obviously creep her out.

I have never chatted her up or anything so I don't know how it's possible to creep someone out I have never even spoke too...Iam not weird I have m8's and a job but I just seem to have some kind of women repellent on me. Any thoughts on this matter would be appreciated .Thanks!:whistle:
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

1. Body image disorder doesn't affect your ability to speak.
2. Your post is too vague.
3. Read the DJ Bible to learn how to attract women instead of repel them.

If I could reach through the screen I would take your keyboard away. Stop posting to people who have psychological issues because you don't know what you're talking about.

Body image disorder makes a person feel insecure. Insecurity causes people to be uncomfortable talking to people.

To the OP...let me see what I can find for online self help with body image.

There are a bunch of books available, but some are very specific to different problems.

This site has a lot of great info on different emotional/psychological issues:

You probably have Peter Parker syndrome... girls can tell a loser just by the way he walks.

sure, Wyldfire, just feed into his need for excuses. Plenty of guys on this forum have/had anxiety issues. That doesn't mean we can't learn to be sociable.

i still say the post is too vague


and btw, here's a hint, Spoon: No matter how ugly you may think you look, LOOKS DON'T MATTER. Keep that in mind. Be powerful, not beautiful. And read the Bible.
 

"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.
