"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.

Any easy subtle ways of working out if someone has a gf/bf to make sure to not be wasting time?

Ask her out on a date - if she's interested and single, or even just interested; your answer will be yes.

If it's no - than she's not interested or tell you she has a BF, and even if she doesn't, you're wasting your time.

Just ask them out. They say yes, no problem solved. You shouldn't be concerned with that.

This.
She has no boyfriend and wants your d¡ck: she says yes.
She has no boyfriend and does not want your d¡ck: she says no.
She has boyfriend and wants your d¡ck: she says yes.
She has boyfriend and does not want your d¡ck: she says no.

This would classify as a buffer against rejection (yes, I'm re-reading The Rational Male). This said, in the "stop overthinking" ways of DonJuanism, the question is good, and we should be interested in the answers if only because of curiosity about female body language when in the "honeymoon" phase.

It has no bearing on anything. If you want to go out with them, ask them out.
 

"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.

As soon as you start talking to her, she should realize why. And if she has a bf, she will bring him up in conversation immediately if she wants to reject you softly.

Honestly, it's OK to just ask directly. In fact, most women will respect you more for this, since you are confident enough to state what you want and are not hiding your intentions from her.

Mid conversation just say "are you single by the way?" or if you want to be polite say "excuse me if I'm being a bit direct, but I wanted to know if you're single?". If it's a yes then ask them out on a date. But usually you can tell if a girl is single and interested just by her vibe.

This is why it's suggested to collect prospects all the time. Game on all the time, try not think of it as waste of time it's all practice, push to escalate & get sum action.

There are broads out there always looking to monkey branch and or have multiple guys they are seeing as well. Just get use to the fact that it is part of the game & you shouldn't give 2 fvcks. You will eventually meet some that will lie about it's inevitable. It happens ALL the time.
 

"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.

It's irrelevant if they have a boyfriend, husband, or whatever. It's not a mans job to be a fvcking detective. It's a mans job to go for what he wants.

Unrelated question: all this DJ lifestyle is it directly taken from Moliere's play ?

never ask
if she says she has a boyfriend, always counter with
"I didnt ask if you have a boyfriend, I asked you out for a drink"

True. However, some women in relationships will go out with you if they are attracted and/or their relationship is weak and she is looking for validation. You can figure this out on your date when you attempt to escalate. Eventually she will tell you and let you know the deal if anything is going to happen. At that point follow your conscious. I never mess with women in relationships, too much trouble and it really isn't a lot of fun working around this BS. I know some guys that carry on affairs with married women all the time.... and it seems to work for them, I guess it's an element of excitement, if this is you what do I care. If I want excitement, I'll go skydiving or rock climbing.
