"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.

So by her fearing you she's going to "put out" and be feminine? How would you go about reversing a situation that you was doormat because you where too giving to her?
No, it would stop most of the BS.

As I said there really is not a way to reverse it that is going to work very often.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

If you had no choice but to correct it you have one year to do it what would you do? Cheating, ignoring her and some verbal abuse are ok to use. What process to restore respect ?

In other words, first impressions count. A LOT.
True. But people also change as a relationship develops. That's the trouble. The dynamic you start out with may not be the entrenched dynamic you end up with. Reversing an entrenched dynamic is much harder than making the right first impression. The frog in the pot is an accurate metaphor in many cases.
