"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.

Well i double texted the Lebanese girl this morning like an idiot. Broke my own fundamental rule and it seems like she is ghosting me. No replies 9 hours later. She literally invited me on 2 other dates while on our first date. Must have been a **** test.

Can someone decipher this **** for me? What to even say to this? Might just ghost her. Pretty vague.
Possibly you behaved to eager for her after your last date with her. But that's just a guess.
