"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.

A challenge...

Broseidons, I once again find myself in a pickle.

There's this chick at my university who I used to occasionally fool around with until a few months ago. She pretty much LJBF'ed me so I cut my losses and booked.

Now ordinarily I would just next her sorry ass and go about my business, but she's super hot, and presents a challenge to me. First I just NC'ed her and kept living the good life, kicking it with friends, working out, etc etc. Looking back on myself, I can see that I was far less of a DJ back then than I am now, given that I try as hard as possible to always be improving my game.

Having not spoken to her pretty much at all for a couple of months, I tried my hand a little bit, NC didn't really whet her appetite, so I've been flirting a little bit, talking, kino, having fun.

She's not really responding, nothing can make this b1tch crack again! So my question is, do I next her altogether, or make a last ditch effort, and out of curiosity, what would the last ditch be?

Thanks in advance guys :rockon:
 

"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.

Not trying to give advice, but I think you've answered your own question. Think about if somebody else gives you this story, what would you say?

If she's not responding, how can you actually be interested in her?

If it were someone else, I would be tempted to tell them to next, or find some way to spark her interest (again). We've fooled around before, so I guess she saw something in me, and over the last few months of just trying to improve, I would have thought that attraction would have magnified. Guess not.

In my opinion, she's making me chase her, when I want her to chase me. I guess my question is, what do to get her interest level up.

Unless it's a lost cause, but it doesn't seem that way.

Understood that you want to have one last crack but what can you do? I realise that's the question you're asking but it seems tough to reignite interest once it's gone.

How do you raise attraction when there's none to begin with? Looks like she's not interested instead of playing hard to get! Cut your losses and move on. Or try shower her with lots and lots of attention then suddenly no contact as a last ditch.

I'd move on!
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Yeah, just really wanted to make sure it was well and truly dead before I just make it strictly business.

Well actually there's a last ditch effort you can make, and it's to make her say no. Just ask her out and make some pretty obvious moves...

I've done that before, was going out swimming with a girl (her idea) who I knew was toying with me. So we were sitting in the bubble pool and I just blatantly started feeling her up haha! The mood was definitely not right, she freaked out and never saw her again but the whole thing was priceless, I still laugh today :D

On the other hand if she actually does like you maybe she'll respond well to a ballsy move. So yeah before you throw away a prospect, why not have some fun.

Im doing the same thing right now with a masters student I met at a nightclub. She was fine... Hit it a few times, and now its kinda dead...

I am usually the one to get bored and find a new chick, so its killing me for it to be the other way around. I made a pretty solid effort last night, to no avail, and am just gonna forget about it. Challenge forfeit. BIFF

It'd be good for some lulz, but I'm not entirely sure that she's toying with me. In fact, I'm quite sure the last spark flickered out a long time ago. I think I'll live my life and maybe a few more months down the line she'll realise how bad she dun goofed.
