"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 touching mean anything when it comes to flirting?

I'm starting to think that any "sign" from a woman shouldn't be construed as anything positive or negative.

For instance, a HB was rubbing my face with her hands and running her fingers through my hair. however it was it seemed that she was just demonstrating that she could do that and I was letting her. Once I realized I was letting her do what she wanted I then said "hands off the merchandise" for some push/pull.

I'm feeling like a lot of signals like this is just women doing it because they can.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

with a normal girl, touching means a lot

if you're deeply friend zoned, dealing with an extremely touchy-feely person, an AW, etc. then it means far less

Well she definitely isn't repulsed by you. You just have to ask for a date at that point, or at least grab some digits. Otherwise, it's just temporary fun and games.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

It could really go either way. Recently, I was hanging with a girl from work and she was touching my arm and running her hand through my hair. When I texted her though to hang solo she never even responded back.

Honestly, what I learned is if you feel you have IOIs you just have to go for it. The worst possible thing that can happen is you get no response and that isn't even so bad.
