"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.

Occasionally I encounter the flaky bs and wonder how I can play this out, these girls are from tinder

<After exchanging 2 messages>
Me: I'm not much into the back and forth texting or pen-pal thing. I'd like to meet you for a coffee one night this week and get to know each other better. Let me know if that sounds good to you. =)

HB: HAHAHA that sounds lovely! :)
Me: Perfect, what nights are you free this week?
HB: Sorry I fell asleep! I'm not sure my schedule is in a mess right now :/ (It was pretty late at night)

Pretty sure walking away won't help when her investment is so low and its tinder where the bigger better deal is just a next swipe away.

Chasing won't help either.

Tell her to let you know when she's free to get together and wait.

But don't wait. Find other women.

When she stated "sounds lovely," you go with:

Sounds like a plan Missy (or Sounds good). Give me your number and I will text/call you to make arrangements =) Konada
Hard to recover. Try:

How dare you fall asleep on me! =) I'm not on here much, so let's take our convo offline. Give me your number and I will text/call you sometime. Konada
If no reciprocation, it's too great an investment. On to the next one.

Well she made my job easy for me, went to dance practice and she unmatched me when I didn't reply for a few hours.
