"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.

First post. i need HELP!

I'll try not to make this too long....
So I met this girl over the summer who had a boyfriend. She is very flirty/friendly so i was confused upon what steps i should take. Now, after getting to know her better, i decided that we have so much in common and that i was somehow going to try and get a more than friends relationship out of this. Problem is, is taht she's about 5 hours away at school. Well my opportunity came this past month. She broke up with her scumbag of a boyfriend last month. I knew from what she had told me that there were other guys that like her, so i finally made my "move" if you want to call it that. I finally mustered up the nutz to tell her over instant messanger (word of advice...AVOID THIS IF YOU CAN!). She forced it out of me and i had about an hour conversation about it with her. She wasn't weirded out, she was somewhat supprised, but after what i thought was ackwardness, she said she'd like to go out on a date next time she came around.

Well, we went on a date and had a jolly old time. Went to dinner and then caught a movie. Nothing spectacular happened but the next day she instant message pounced me and told me what a wonderful time she had....great right?

Well, back to this xboyfriend thing. Before they broke up a month ago, she had plane tickets to go and see him, and she iterated to me how she didn't want to go but he kept pestering her. Well, today ...she went.

I am so confused on what i should do. I want to give her space to get her $hit together, but i know if i'm not aggressive enough i'll lose my chances.
So long story short, should i even bother calling her while she's down there with his family for a week or should i make it seem as i could give 2 $hits?

I know i am pondering way too much and all you long time DJ's are gonna rip me a new one saying who cares, there's a million girls i could go meet, but i hate to say it...i think this one is special to me.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Think of it as a test. This is your opportunity to prove to her that you're not the clingly, jelous type of guy. This is a major turn off for girls! You're not going to care that she's going to visit her ex because you know you're the prize, you know you're the cooler of the 2 guys.

By not bringing up the subject (in a neg way), you're showing to her that you don't "need" her, that you have real confidence in yourself, which means more points for you.

Don't screw it up, hang tight and pass the test dude, I know it can be hard.

I wouldn't call her, I know it's hard to resisit the temptation. I would wait until she comes back and then just ask "so did you have a good time?"

You're not really going to prove anything to her by calling, but by waiting you're going to...

- show her that you trust her (even if you don't fully, it's points for you if you do.
- show her that you're confident in yourself
- show her that you have a life apart from her (i.e. that you're busy hanging with other cool people for the holidays) Even though she may be the only person that's important to you right now, I wouldn't advertise that, make her start to miss you first.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

All I've gotta say is you're the rebound guy. It's most likely not going to last very long between you and her. You're best off to keep her around for some fun. If you're developing "feelings" for her (which is what it sounds like), RUN.

I agree, you have rebound all over you.

Now, I would not call her. Don't call her when she's down there.

You are allowing her to take your power away from you.

What you should be doing is having a blast and looking for other women.

Deal with this when she comes back - and don't think about it in the meantime.

Avoid the one-i-tis and thinking of you and her together.

Chances are she's fvcking her ex.

Remember that.

Here's how you know the ex boyfriend is out of the picture:

If she never brings him up to you.
If you are sleeping with her.

In the first case, she's either a cheat or she's more interested in you. In the second case, who cares?

Otherwise, he's still in the picture.

The only way you can figure out if she's special is if you have something to base that on. So I know it's not what you want to hear, but go meet other women. Then not only will you be ready to handle her and this type of situation, but you'll have met a lot more women. Win-win!

anonuser78 you have done so many things wrong already and the situation is stacked up against you. It won't really matter what you do if you call her now or later, even if you call her now, It looks like she is the one telling you when and where she is ready to see you and you have no power over this because she is going back to school. Maybe if you are lucky you will be getting a kiss but that's pretty much it, she still has not finished her business with her ex.

You are better off forgeting about this chick until she is done her studies and is coming home for the summer and the ex thing is done and over with. In the meanwhile read the DJ Bible and try hooking up with other chicks.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

i'm gonna have to call BS on one of your points.

just because she's sleeping with you or any girl for that matter doesn't mean she's incredibly intrested in you. Right i know who cares but don't confuse her having sex with you, with the assumption that she's "so into you"

other things have to follow, if you bang the first time you hang out with the girl, chances are sex to her is just a feel good sport and she's about something more than that when it comes to winning her intrest

WHAT?!?!

gone to see the ex?, it appears to me that your in the LJBF category mate, i'd knock this one on the head and move onto better things, if she's really interested (which i doubt) then she'll come running after you!!
