"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.

The rules are entirely different when it comes to co-workers.

When a woman you work with feels rejected, she will subconsciously be out for your blood. She won't even know she's doing that, but do it, she will. She will say the most outlandish things about you in front of management. They become vengeful, though covert, monsters when they feel rejected.

I really don't know what she's up to, she always talks like she has an escape plan, she talks like things are separate you would think as a couple it would be "ours" its not. She likes running her hands through her hair when I'm with her preening herself lol, if she wants to show me something she gets close. Pretty sure she's looking for some comfort, I'm not going to get involved with her I have no real interest in doing so.

Just going by the age shown in your profile, dad. ;'p
I was thinking of changing it and my gender pronoun since delusions are what all the cool are doing. Today, I am a pixie kin. Tomorrow I am a Chinese black woman. Next week, I am worm people.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Suggest she intro you to her hawttttt friends.
Actually not a bad idea! Suggest you double, her +her bf and the hot young chick she sets you up with. If she's "naw" to that then say nevermind then
