"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 had a string of "lucky" encounters last night, meaning girls were opening me. It really caught me off guard. It's nice, but strange. I really didn't know what to do with it. Recommendations?

So, the first girl doing this is a very pretty girl, I'd say a 7.5 or 8. Young, tall, cute. I see her walking towards me at the bar, so I smile. She smiles back. Unfortunately, she taps a guy on the shoulder standing right in front of me. I assume they are boyfriend/girlfriend. She just stands there, lingering.

Then, she whispers something to the guy. It could just be my paranoia, but I think she said the following: "you can tell certain guys in here are players..." She nods over to me, without looking. The guy looks at me with a sheepish, embarrassed grin. I can feel my own face turning beet red in embarrassment.

Then she says to me: "oh, you can go ahead (and order a drink)." I decide this is an opening to talk to her. However, I decide it's safer to talk to her male companion first. She watches very intently as I speak to him. The guy seems very nervous and shy speaking to me. I try to have a friendly conversation, joking around, but the guy is so stiff and nervous, I just give up on it.

---

I take a seat at the bar. Now, some older lady starts talking to me. She's very drunk and very animated. She begins to touch my arm and lean in. I move to get up and get away from her just a bit. She leans in some more and asks where my girlfriend or wife is. She asks me if I have kids. I'm pretty vague on the details. Then she says "you're way too cute not to have a girlfriend." I take this as my cue to leave.

Anyway, odd night in that I'm approached by consecutive girls. How would you guys have handled the first girl???
 

"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.

if you like her then move into qualifying her, you already have her attraction since she approached you. demonstrate higher value then start qualifying.

So something like:

you: (smooth, sexy tonality with smile)Hi, you seem like an adventurous/fun/out-going/social women - ever been to NewYork? (thats your queue to DHV of some amazing story if she says no)

then just carry on as usual. There is nothing major about a girl opening you, it just means you skip the initial intro and attraction and you may be able to move things faster along because certain presumptions have already been made for them to approach you - you seem alpha, demonstrate 'player' characteristics, have social proof etc

Thanks, James. I'll keep that in mind. In retrospect, I believe the guy was just a hanger-on or brother or something like that. He just seemed out of it and meek. I shouldn't have worried about him so much.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

well, if the girl is whose value is equal to yours, and comes to you in a normal sweet way (introduction way) then just go on to a normal convo, she probably had a lot of guts to talk to you.

if the girl comes up to you in a stuck up DHV frame, a SHB, I think you can use some teasing and such, while never act like the girl, stuck up or arrogant, instead to diffuse her, just go on talking like the simple Joe (without showing that you're fazed by her) and being the level-headed!
