"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.

Hey guys, about 5 years ago I worked out steadily for only 6 months. In that period of time, my weight went from 140 lbs to 170 lbs. I'm only 5'11''. Everyone I knew thought I was well-built, but I thought I needed another 15-20 lbs to be where I wanted to be.

My question to you guys: what is your ideal weight for your height?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I'm 5'11", I want to be 185-190lbs. I'm at 180 right now so by the end of the summer I should be set.

It really depends. Any weight range where you have a full range of motion (i.e. can touch your own damn back!) and good lateral movement (i.e. movement useful in sports) is "ideal".

If you play a power sport for school or even professionally your "ideal" weight might be in the upper range at 5'11", about 200 pounds. If you're a normal, healthy guy, with a trim, attractive bild, then maybe 170-180 in ultra-lean muscle is "ideal". It also depends on your natural build. Are you an ectomorph or a mesoprph or an endomorph? An meso/endomorph would always weigh more than an ectomorph at the same height.

If you're from Europe or Asia, most women would not find the typical American physique attractive. It's cultural - the focus there is on streamline, lean, svelte bodies. On the same note, not as many men love "booties fo' da pushin'" like they do in Ameirca. I don't even think the term exists ouside of the US. America has the biggest bodies, but also the fattest, thank the culture of over-consumption and exaggerated physicality. That's also why we have the reputaion of dressing like shiat; we can't get any nicely draped clothes to cover our gargantuan bodies.

There are many many factors, so I don't think it is possible to determine what an "ideal weight" is.
