"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 I just got back from this little date with this girl I met on myspace. Over the past few days shes been constantly texting me and all. Well today I picked her up at school and we went to the park. It was pretty much empty and we just walked around and talked. We were there for prolly more than an hour. One part I know I went wrong with is I didnt bother to put any kino on. But after that I had to take her to the salon she works at. I parked in front and we ended up sitting there talking for maybe 30 mins. Her best friend works there and kept txting her jokingly stuff like"are you gonna come in or just stare at the building" and after a while she txted again"if you dont come in I'm coming out there" I think she was just joking but we were out there for a while. Then she got out and said shed txt me in a bit. SO this was about 2 hrs ago and she hasnt txted or called me. I get the feeling she doesnt wanna go out again which is fine seeing how I cant really do much since Im leaving next month for the Air Force. I pretty much know what things I did wrong too. btw yesterday she left me a bunch of pic comments on myspace saying how cute and adorable I am, but I get the feeling after meeting me in person shes not into me.
 

"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.

2 hours ago?! No offense, but a guy that's going to the Air Force and gets all spongie after 2 hours isn't what I thought of Air Force guys.

What kino did you apply? You should have gone for the kiss at multiple situations man. Neither of you were just there to txt and that bs, you both wanted to make out, but you didn't have the balls to do so.

Do not contact her, wait for her to contact you. Spin more plates, and make new plans with her and this time kiss her.

I know I shouldve done some kino but I got the feeling she wasnt into me, which is kinda a 180 turn on things. Shes the one who asked me out and she was all into me. It was actually getting annoying with all her texts in her telling me to txt her when I got off work and shyt.
And to be honest Im expecting her to send me a message saying she just wants to be friends. But this girl was beautiful and I would go out with her again if the chance came up. Damn the mini golf was closed at the park which sucked but oh well. And yea Im def gonna wait for her to contact me.

I know the feeling, don't give a damn about that, just go for it, next 3 chicks that turn out like that, ignore, and do some escalating kino. If she wanted to be friends (at that moment) she wouldn't have spent so fvcking much time with you. Judge the actual actions trans am.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Call her tomorrow, don't text her or anything, and set the 2nd date, and this time do some moves on her.

Ok heres kinda a stick in the road. She had this guy she was goin out with for only a few days before we went out. And something happened and she said he was an a$$hole. Well now on her myspace page he's at the number 2 spot and her headline says "On hold, I wanna be his one and only" also in her about me section it says that shes single but she wants to be with someone and she hope things work out so she can be together. Im assuming shes talking about him and Im guessing they started talking or whatever again. So what should I do now?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

SO I guess she wanted this other guy the whole time huh? And now it seems pointless to even bother with her.
