"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.

2 days after you get a number you accidently blank/ignore her, what to do?

this particular type of pick up would usually only affect people at college on campus. 2 days ago i picked up a girl on campus and obviously with waiting about 3-4 days to call yesterday would have been too soon, however i was waiting for a friend at a exit gate to campus and i think the girl i picked up 2 days ago was passing by me in the opposite direction and might have waved and i just ignored her.. reason being is that i am near-sighted and was not wearing my glasses but my sunglasses.

in this kind of awkward scenario what would she be thinking?
 

"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.

had i not been at that exit gate everything would have been cool and i would have called her sunday, now she might think i have blanked her on purpose and is thinking 'what a d1ck', i only realised it might have been her as she passed me and walked away. something like this wouldn't work in my favor right?

i feel she probably won't pick up when i call on sunday due to my rudeness. i just had a stern look on my face or i might have waved at her half heartedly. it's probably not something worth mentioning to her if she does pick up her phone unless i try to turn it round and say how i couldnt see properly and saw this hot girl but didnt think it would be appropriate to talk to her given i already picked you up 2 days before.. maybe that might make her think that 1 shes special and 2 i dont just pick up random girls.

Are you serious?

1. You should be approaching tons of girls and not care about what happens with one.
2. Who gives a fvck what she thinks..
3. You analyze way too much..

If she really wanted to grab your attention she would have called your name out.

Don't worry about it, just call her as usual.
yeah i will but im anticipating that she may not pick up due to what happened 2 days ago.

what i mean is, what would she be thinking?

reason i ask is this happens quite on a frequent basis where i accidently blank the girls cos i cant see that far. bear in mind i think she smiled and waved slightly and i either halfsmiled/half heartedly waved.. do u think that might have worked in my favour showing my interest then somewhat showing my disdain.. if she was interested would her interest increased wondering why was i being standoffish?

my behaviour would have been as if i called her and she didnt pick up and now im being bitter acting like a sore loser.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

i did call, she didn't answer.. exactly what i predicted what would happen. what do u think she was thinking?

reason being is this happens a lot given my sight problems.. but i never know what they're thinking to counteract the situation.

"who does this guy think he is not waving back? i dun wanna hear from him ever again!"
Uh no... more like.. "oops i dun think he saw me/ recognized me... oh well hes an afc anyways im not answering if he does call"

I think you would've more chances of getting her to pick up if she really felt that she was being ignored.

well she didnt call me back so i texted her today the date arrangements saying we should meet up this week after class and i offered 2 potential days only with a little ****y response of that i didnt forget her and for her not to worry.

she didnt reply, till like 8 hours later saying that shes sorry and that shes really busy and has final exams starting next week and finishes end of june and that this week is not possible.

no counter offer, nothing.

in my mind it's like 'ok so shes not interested and only replied to be polite so doesn't feel bad' is that probably quite accurate assessment?

a simple, 'we can meet up after i finish exams' line at the end would be all that was needed if she was interested right?

i responded with a we can meet next week or the week after when her exams finish and i couldnt let her miss out on seeing me before she leaves the country.

she didnt reply to that. a simple 'ok' would be justified which shows u low interest. maybe i'd have been better off not even responding with anything to see if she came back with an offer of time when shes free, but do u think thats unlikely?

i think i shouldn't have been so available offering next week AND the week after. she took 8 hours to reply, i replied after 1 hour.

Should I have just not sent anything at all and just called at the end of june when her exams were over?

the beauty about being on campus is u got another shot at seeing her again and reworking the initial pick up to correct your mistakes so next time i bump into her i guess i could recharm her and make her laugh and interested again, but should i split and leave without time/date closing to make her wonder why?

just to leave that high IL then leaving it for the phone call a few days later to set up the date?
