"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.

Curious who folks designate for their Durable Financial Power of Attorney and Medical Directive Agent if they are not married.

When do you think an LTR qualifies for that responsibility?
Especially when your parents are elderly.
Do you grant your Siblings that right?
When do you think Adult Children possess the ability to act on your behalf if you are incapacitated?
 

"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 would consider giving it to my child if they are 25+ and are reasonable/have their sh1t together. But that can potentially be a difficult spot to put them in too. I think siblings generally are better so long as you hold a close relationship with them.

LTRs are tricky. It would have to be pretty serious and that is a very big responsibility to give to a person not related by blood and who isn't your wife. I would shy away from it completely to be honest.
