When women spend a long time in the bathroom while you're out with them for the first time, does this mean they're trying to "kill time" because they're not that into you?? That's what I would think. I don't know though.
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.
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.

Yes, if she spends alot of time in the bathroom it is usually a good sign since she is making the effort to look good for you.
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.
No, I've never seen it...what's it about??Originally posted by persistent exaction

Yeah, I'd be more apt to believing that. I never even got a kiss goodbye, only a hug that night..although I did have my arm around her a few times during the night..she didn't try to pull away or anything, and she was massaging my hand. Who the hell knows.Originally posted by TooColdUlrick
the bathroom is a sanctuary for women. she's probably talking sh!t about you, or calling up other guys, or her chick friends. half of the time, they go to the bathroom without even having to take a wee wee or drop a doo doo.
maybe she's "refunding", as in sienfeld?
what i don't understand is how woman can use so much fukking toilet paper. i had two over here the other night, my sister and a friend. between them, they went through a fresh roll in one night! i told them i was gonna start charging them for it.
I find it funny too... If I have a girlfriend I can go through an entire package in a week or two. If I am on my own one lasts me for months.Originally posted by TooColdUlrick

Do you wipe your penis after you urinate? Well, they do. Remember, their urinary tract and vagina are damn close to their anus. Fecal matter is a bastian of bacteria and and other bad things. If any of that gets into the urinary tract or vagina they're in for a world of hurt. Thus a lot of wiping and cleaning. Femanine hygene is infinatly more technical and necessary then male. Now you know why all the girls had to go to that meeting in the gymnasium back when you were in gradeschool.

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
