Girl going cold after telling her I'm moving

[teddy]

Moving to another city in a few weeks. Ran into a girl who likely had a thing for me recently and in the beginning of the conversation, she was like she always was, flirty and bubbly. Then as the conversation turned, I broke the news I was moving during the flow of the conversation and since then she's been acting pretty cold towards me.

I've read articles where when women find out you're not going to be around for long, they tend to show MORE interest because they know they're going to lose you and now you're "scarce". But maybe that's wrong.

Is she being cold because now she figures there's no chance?

Sound like you were blowing her off when you told her you were moving. That would've been a good time to suggest getting together.

No, it's true. Scarcity is generally attractive, that's why her reaction is surprising. The only explanation I can think of is that she wants to protect herself from getting hurt emotionally. So, she wants to put an end to the story before she gets too involved instead of risking painful heartbreak when you leave.

Never tell them you are moving until the last possible minute. That way, you have detached but they have not (yet). Give them 3 weeks and they will be detached.

Sadly, when you tell a girl you are moving, they don't usually say "let's hurry up and have sex before you leave!"

Friday was my last date before moving (I told her 3 weeks ago). When I first told her, it was the most romantic. The next time, she turned cold on me.

You shouldn't have told her you were moving. I met a chick before I was going to move out of state and I didn't tell her I was moving. I hit it a couple times. Then she wanted to be exclusive, so I told her that I'm moving out of state lol.
