"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 have become a bit of a hardass with HBabies lately.

For instance - I'm on a personals site and I message someone. They don't respond. I think that they are blowing me off - but then, 4 days later, they message me back, even though I saw she was online in that time. I don't bother to reply to her email, and next her. Hardass.

Or if I call someone I # closed, and they take 3-4 days to return the call. I lose the number and next her without bothering to hear why she took so long to return the call. Hardass.

Is this being too much of a hardass? The way I feel now, if interest is not immediately reciprocated then I don't have time to deal with her. So far, this has made a couple of them more interested in me, as they continue to email/call. I haven't heard from the rest.

depends really, if you want to go out with the interested ones, then it is a good strategy. but if you want to kinda invest more time into it and see if you can make them more interested or if they are simply being girls and playing hard to get. get offended after the 3rd time not the first.

I have a bit of a natural progression for women who are hard to nail down/hard to get commitments out of/feet draggers:

1 = hard to get

2 = hard to get + fussy

3 = undateable

4 = undateable + undesireable

Fussy people and I don't get along, so after two offenses it's, "Sayonara". Women have slvt defenses, so I give them one shot at hard to get.

Now, there are some situations where some women need dogging. But, more than 3 attempts and you are chasing an AW and need to cut yourself off. Don't trust their words: "I've been busy.", "I meant to...", "I'd really like to..."

No means no. After two "by action no's", your answer is apparent.
