"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'm a little stumped here guys. I am wondering would be a desperate move to message a girl who I messaged more then a week ago but got no response. Before then she was talkin to me all the time. The message was rather long...(my bad). So I think she didn't bother reading it lol. But ya, would it be ok to send her a short message just to make sure we're on good terms?

That's all. I think I have a couple other questions bout other things I can't seem to figure out but I'll ask y'all if I can't figure it out my self. Thanks guys.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Do not send a message. Its very obvious that you desperately want to talk to her. She and you are done, let it go and move on to the next one.

Agreed. If you were talking all the time and she stopped, it's time for you to stop until she contacts you again. Or maybe never respond if you can pull it off.

Sounds like an online girl.

If it is - NEXT.
If its not - rude, NEXT!

I talk in RL with her all the time. Did so on Friday so ya.
I see. Kk. But y'all might bash me here, but I think I need some closure though. I'ma send a short what up message. She don't respond to that then NC completely.
 

"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.
