Why did u have to say they were sexy snakes lol
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
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.
You have not failed to impress me yet with your eloquent Freudian sexually connotative representation of body parts, TheCWord.
Where would we be as men without your intense explaination of sexy pile of long big snakes.
Damn, looks like I won't be sleepin' tonight.

That's what I thought for a long time too, but like I said earlier, some will withdraw because of fear. The one I was talking about, was falling hard and I think she felt she was losing control. Some people give up when they see that there is no way they will have total control.JoeMarron said:A chick who's truly interested isn't going to let a damn thing get in her way.

This is just an agree to disagree situation, and I may very well be too cynical for my own good. I just have an easier time believing that us men will come up with the most creative excuses for a woman's behaviour than a woman leaving you because she... wuvs you too much?El Suave said:That's what I thought for a long time too, but like I said earlier, some will withdraw because of fear.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
