"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.

do women ever break it off with guys to test how much you care about them?

do women ever break up with guys they've been seeing just to test how interested he really is in her? (as in if he doesn't come back to chase her then 'he wasn't worth it')

i know on here they say don't chase just no contact but is it just wishful thinking that she is testing you?

i'm assuming if she thinks you're a playa and only interested in her for 1 thing.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

If a girl breaks it off with me I assume she isn't interested and I'll chalk it up as a loss and move on. If a girl thinks that by pulling this nonsense on me she'll increase my interest and I'll come running back to her like a love sick puppy dog then she's in for a surprise. If I want to play games, I'll play FIFA 12 or Monopoly.

i see.. i remember a girl i was seeing back in the day thought i was a playa and broke up with me cos she felt i was only after 1 thing. we hadn't had sex yet so it obviously isn't a break up but her friends told me that she did it to test if i really liked her or not or only after sex. i had other options at the time.

maybe she had a different agenda?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I tend to stay away from people with agenda's. Agenda's are nasty things my friend, nasty things.
