"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.

Here is an intresting concept. One night at the pub, this lass mentions a lad she refers to as "sort of seeing".

Now, of course in my don't give a damn, arrogant cavalier DJ attitude, i assume it means "I am single, but you have competition". I enjoy a challenge so I reckon should give it a shot. Try and get the lass on my own... show her how awesome I am, and then drop her like a disease. See if she contacts me...

How would you responde to her sort of seeing someone?
 

"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.

I've never tried this, but someone once said to say "don't worry, I'm not the jealous type"

lol. I think that's funny.

Anyway, I'd just ignore that comment.....but be EXTRA sure that you don't get emotionally attached quickly.

Oh, no danger of that. But yeh, I did treat it with indifference at the time. Could just leave it. Half a mind to challenge her. Say something like either the other guy was too much of a whoose to make a move. Or she is a cow for holding out for better.

Saying these things would make the other fella seem insecure, and also reject her a little to make her feel like she wants to prove that she isn't a cow.Also could open a conversation on what she would be looking for in someone better. Would open some leagues of kino.

Meh - I'll wing it
