Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

I have been added by a really hot woman on a dating website, she is 26 I'm 42 I would class her as HB 8.5, we got chatting it turns out she is Swedish living in the UK, but she has asked me to contact her through Skype.
Is there any chance of a possible scam here virus attack etc.
Just found her on Facebook she has 97 followers and of them there are about 3 women
 

"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.

Yes, people can get your IP address through Skype. It's best to use Proxy's/VPN's like Ultrasurf when Skyping with someone you don't know.

Thanks I've deleted her from skype, before she accepted me
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

You are reasonably intelligent enough to know when things are suspect. There are so many women out there within a 5 miles radius (****, within a 1 mile radius) of you that there is no need to play this game.

If I can't exchange phone numbers with a girl, I don't talk to her. Girls offer up their numbers to me via social mediums (e.g. POF) without me even asking for them. Why would I waste my time Skyping with someone I've never met?

No HB 8.5 is gonna message you online. Wishful thinking.

She (he) is phishing for your IP in order to spam you.

Case closed. Delete her.

I don't mess with online dating but what would this scammer gain by getting your IP address?
All that would give is the city you lived in, right?
I don't see how it's related to phishing or anything, but i don't know that much.

Someone that has your IP address can DDOS your internet, view personal information(including where you live) or even upload spyware/malware(usually advertisement spam, but they can still upload a more severe virus)
Of course if you have a decent security provider like AVG it makes it harder for them to do anything.
 

"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.

If you think it's a scam it is. Gut is almost always right.

Yeah there are so many scammers on dating sites that if you even have a slight feeling it may be one, 99% of the time it is.
