"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.

Does absence make the heart grow fonder.

Any Thoughts.

For me I suppose initially this is true you miss someone increasingly with time spent apart. However at a certain point there starts to be in economic terms, diminishing returns. It becomes an inverse relationship, up until the point where you have absolutely no emotions left for the other person.

And is this the same principal as no contact???
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Only if you have reach the second stage of attraction form her... If you have not, then Absense gives other men the opportunity they have been waiting for...
Hit the nail on the head. Even if you have reached this stage of attraction, long time apart gives much time for rethinking and curiosity. So I don't know if it's a woman you are fond of that you are talking about, but don't be surprised if that long time apart may have changed things.

Then what the hell are ganji games for? Sometimes the advice on this board is so contradictory. Time apart works when a girl breaks up with you, because it "gives her the gift of missing you", but now you morons say it changes things for the worse?

Make up your damn minds.

"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.
