"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I have been exclusive with my girlfriend for about 4 months now. It's been going well and we do a lot of activities/trips together and with others.
Recently there has been a recurring theme of her telling me that she likes me "a lot" and then asking me if "I even like her". At first I thought it was just kind of a joke so I dealt with it playfully. A few days ago though she talked to me a bit more seriously and told me she really feels like she is doing everything to make me happy (which is true) and finds that she is unsure whether I feel the same way and that I don't seem to put as much effort.
I am not sure how to deal with this - how much reassurance can I really give verbally? I obviously don't want her to feel like I am detached as I think she is a great girl.
 

"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.

Maybe tell her that I you didn´t like her, you wouldn´t be investing time in her.

You're being too distant/aloof.

Don't be so aloof.
Probably so. He might be a bit too internalized with some reluctance in expressing his thoughts and feelings.
She may not be getting the message she wants to hear.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
