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.
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.
Maybe it's YOU who has the bad breath...and she's shielding herself from smelling it...LOLOriginally posted by Pac_Man
Why do women when you're talking to them cover their mouths when they are talking close to you?? I've always wondered this. Thanks to anyone that can help.
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.
I think this is the only time I'll agree with you.Originally posted by JT47319
Because they don't want you to shove your **** down their mouths.
Really, does it ****ing matter in a sarge? It's not an IOI, or if it is it's not a big enough IOI to matter much.

i think you covered all of em.Originally posted by Elfynne
It could be one of four reasons:
1) They have bad breath,
2) they think something is funny and they are trying not to laugh,
3) an unconscious nervous gesture (it could mean they like you), or
4) they have crooked teeth and they don't want you to see them.
