"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.

Upfront. I am still working on my self confidence, so bare with me on this one. Last year, I was living in Texas and working for another company. I got to knowing this cute woman at work(Her name was Tracy). She was obviously interested in me because she would sometimes bring me homemade cookies , always come by my office to chat, things like that. I got her phone number, we went out a few times, but being the woose that I am, I never made any serious moves. Part of it was yes, I was timid to make the first move, but it was also the fact that I knew I was getting ready to move to Chicago and she was transfering to Houston, so I guess I nver put my heart & sole into it.

Before we each moved away, we exchanged our new phone numbers, email addresses and physical addresses. (I told her I had plans to move back to Texas within a year). So this wasnt like a full relationship yet, nor did we move apart on (what I thought was still friendly terms). We kept in contact for a couple of months then all of a sudden. she sends me an email pic with her (new boyfriend). So my question is what gives? Somehow, I should have zigged when I zagged. Would appreciate some constructive criticism so i dont make this mistake again.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Well you already know your mistake - you didn't make a move. Because of this she put you in the LJBF zone. Thats pretty much it.

And now its long distance LJBF...
