"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.

Ever had a woman get defensive when you asked her if she was single? I had couple that couldn't give me a straight answer or attempt to deflect it/get defensive.

Of course, she could be anticipating your interest when she's not interested, but there's just something b**chy about being a b**tch about it.

I had one woman I met at a party say ask me back, "Does it matter?"

I think this is where online dating had become more appealing, you know straight up someone's intentions for being on the site and saves some men the hassle of the old-fashioned, organic approach...as sad as that sounds how the information age tends to be a crutch in social situations.
 

"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.

I agree with both posters above me. First of all, no need to ask as she will anticipate if she doesn't want you hitting on her. Second of all, if she gets defensive about the question, that's a slight red flag I would consider cause there is absolutely no real reason to get defensive and butthurt about a question like that.

Don't ask women if they are single ever. They will tell you they have a boyfriend if they want to you know.

Sometimes women are about to end their relationship and they are looking for a new branch to swing to. You can ruin that by asking them if they are single.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Ah, I get it. Yeah, I think if you let them talk long enough, they'll let it slip that they have a bf

I disagree with some of the posts here. Asking a woman if she is single is fine if only because it is a very non-threatening yet direct way of informing her that you want to f-ck her.

bad attitudes are never attractive in the long run, even if they are packaged in an HB8 or above. leave these b1tches in your rear view mirror. they need the kick in the ego desparately

A better way to frame it is "What is your relationship situation?"

And whatever answer she gives you, be okay with it. Don't look dissapointed if she isn't currently single. She could be looking to find another guy.

What a lot of guys who lack experience don't know is that there are "relationship worthy" women, and women with too many issues. Most women have too many issues. Even the hot ones.

The "relationship worthy" women are ALWAYS in a relationship. Or they are in the process of getting out of one. Or juggling multiple relationships. Relationship worthy women are in high demand so they are rarely 100% available. There is already a long waiting list.

Men with experience know this. If you act like her not being single is a big deal, then you out yourself as a guy who is not part of the "sexual fraternity." You look like a guy on the outside looking in.

Life is just like high school. There really is a sexual fraternity. A hierarchy of people who validate and fvck each other all the time, and people that nobody wants.

One of the tenets of the sexual fraternity is that relationship worthy women are never 100% single....unless she was living in a farm or some place that isolates her.
I know married women that are going to social events, without their spouses...which means they are looking to trade-up. They deny it though, saying "he works the night shift" or whatever reason. Usually I "call it" pretty accurate when a few months later their FB status goes to "single" (now divorced) and they change their last name. lol
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

This ^^^^

When a man asks me this question there is no doubt he finds me attractive. In a way it sets up how he wants to interact with me. It is leadership and it is direct. A man who asks this straight up unapologeticly leaves no doubt.

If a woman responds in a wishy washy or I have a boyfriend way, she's not interested. If she says she's not seeing anyone she's open to your interest AND she knows you find her attractive.

Sounds like a perfectly efficient use of time to me ;)

I watched a YouTube video where the guy asked a girl if she had a bf and she said yes, then he said "perfect! I love dating attached women" and she started laughing
