"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.

Ok, so theres another girl who i've been working on for a while and man it has had its ups and downs and this girl is real confusing. well today in the morning I was talkin to her and she told me something that has me questioning whether I've been LJBF'ed.

Basically she went on with something like

"All the people that I talk to I don't hang out with, but all the people I hang out with, I dont talk to them much."

And although this applies for me and I seriously thought this was just me who was like this. I talk to everyone at school and basically start a party in every class I'm in but I never hang out with those kids. I dont know why. I keep my real world friends seperate from schoolmates....

back to the subject, I immediately wondered if this was a sign of the LJBF and maybe I F*cked up but I had to think quick and hopefully I redeemed myself by emphasizing that I was truly the same way and that i was amazed that other ppl are the same way....and then she opened up about how she hangs out with all her friends which are mainly dudes but she can't relate to them or something and about how she's ignored her BF for days because he's a loser and i said I totally understood her way of thinking because it truly is how I feel but man.

Yeah, I know you guys see me posting sh*t that supposedly I can fix, yeah and that stuff that is obvious to me but when it comes to this type of situation I really dont know how to go about it....Like the summer is comin up and I really wanna see this girl again in the summer but there's something that I need to do to show her that her social circle is full of AFCs and that I'm a better fit..i don't know, but I really connect with this girl on a crazy level and I never had before with a girl. I actually respect this chick for who she is, I just don't wanna f*ck anything up..any advice on hwo to approach thhis would be appreciated.

Its really crazy how I havent posted about her throughout the months but her value in my eyes has slowly increased over all the other girls I've been trying to get with...i mean, I am still messing with other girls but this is the type of girl I'd settle down with for a while.....just a while.

but yeah to summarize my problem so far..I went from not even noticing this girl becuase my preference of girls are the ones everyone else wants..the preppy girls, to basically being very attracted to this girl. And well, I've progressively been doing KINO, the Negs, and I've definately without a doubt built comfort with her and a lot of rapport. Hell she tells me her whole life story every day in class. And its funny how at the beginning of us seeing each other we wont say sh*t to each other for like 30 minutes and when the tension is built I release it a little and we connect well. Only problem is that she has some BF dude and hangs out with a gnag of obvious AFCs because she's always claiming that these guys always want her over and they wanna be with her but she doesnt let em or soemthing...I dunno, she's weird. Yeah, and don't think I've been going AFC on her either. I literally push her ass around. I grab her CD player and pencils and steal her bracelets right off of her wrists and she lets me. I tell her that she's not so cool and I tell her her truths and she always smiles..she loves this sh*t..only thing is I can't ever isolate her. I almost did once. She was gonna take me to lunch but when we met up it started raining and her car was in the shop and she had some other dude following her and she was gonna walk in the rain to the restaurant and I was like "FUUUUUUK THAT!!"

damn, sorry if I dragged this out too far but damn I feel a real sense of urgency because its the end of the year and I need to really execute and I don't know exactly how to approach this correctly except for maybe telling her that I'm interested in her for more than just talk, but I dont wanna creep her out...overall i got the choice of telling her how I feel about her and if she wants to try at it, we can and if not I'll move on. Or I can do nothing about it...or maybe someone out there in the forums with some constructive criticism can help good ol' Dime out! PLEASE!!! 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.

Yes you did drag this out a little far. This is what I think you're saying/asking.

You still get play, but this girl has caught your eye. You'd be willing to settle down for a while with this broad, but you think you've been given the LJBF line. Even if that was the case, you could pull it off. Approach her like any other girl. How do you get play from other girls? Repeat with this girl. The only difference is, when you're mackin' on her, toss in an affectionate action (kiss of the hand, forehead, cheek etc) every now and then. I do this naturally and girl always pulls the "You're so cute, so affectionate...I love this" crap. They melt with that stuff.

Don't go AFC though. It's incredibly tempting once you find a keeper. I'm keepin' a close eye on myself when I'm with my girl, making sure I don't chump it up. Why change what got her in the first place right?

I hope you don't go all sappy when she tells her stories either. Keep it light hearted. Listen, but don't be all Dr. Phil. If she's having a horrible day and dumps it on you, reply with "Man, that's a bummer. You're gonna rain on my parade if you keep this up. Here's the deal, this weekend, you, me (pick somewhere/something). It'll get your mind off that stuff," or something like that.

Remember, stay suave.

This doesnt sound like I'm in the right direction.

dude seriously, this chick is confusing.

After I posted that a few minutes ago and analyzed alittle bit, I realized that because this DJ mentality is now actually starting to be programmed up in my head I noticed that I dont really give the girls I like a lot of attention but when I do I like to give it a little more pizzazz than just some fluff talk or whatever everyone else does. And today I realized that maybe I am doing the right thing and this girl is confused about me because I'm probably the only guy who is pulling crazy moves on her. I notice that a lot of guys like this girl but they're all the same. They just talk to her. I tease her, push her, grab her, and compliment her and ignore her.

ahhhh, this chick is confusing me too though.. ...

I dont get it, why invite me to meet your mom, yet you have a boyfriend....he should go play bingo with them, why me?

I have a friend who although has a sticking point wiith actually getting physical with a girl, he really knows how to gauge their interest and he can get them talking. And well he's good with this and I brought him in to where me and her were gonna be doing a school project and I told him to talk to her and see what he thinks and he also agrees that this girl was perfect for my personality BUT I should find someone hotter because she's weird...

Damn, I'm starting to sound like one of these newbs around here HA!

But uhh, outside this one girl, I have a few FRs from the past couple of days that i might post about.
