"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.

I posted on here a while ago about how my girlfriend and I broke up after two years (I'm 18 right now, she's 20) three months ago. Needless to say I was pretty bummed out about it until I found this site and started reading the tips on here and the DJ Bible. I've done pretty well the past few months.. until now. I found out my ex-girl might be sleeping with another guy already (which I should expect... but it still bothers me, slightly). I haven't had a relationship since then. She argues that the double-standard of guys breaking up sleeping with other girls are seen as "Cool" but if a girl were to do that she'd be a hoe.

Anyway... I know this shouldn't bother me because we're broken up. I know she has a right to f*** whoever now that we're appart, but it kinda pisses me off that she made me wait so much for US to sleep together (Probably because I was MAJOR AFC BACK THEN) and now she's been with this guy for three months and is probably already doing stuff.

What would you guys suggest to boost my morale? I really don't want this to make me regress into a frustrated dumb@$$ again.

Oh, and another thing: we still talk and try to be friends. Should I just cut all communication with her? Or would that be immature?
 

"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.

Do you think it's a mistake to try and to be "friends" with her?
