Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Got chatting with this girl over facebook, seems to be going quite well, playing her hot and cold, and she seems interested.
It's just that the conversation seems to run a bit dry at times as its over instant messaging rather than in person.
It's still a bit early to ask her out, any tips on how to keep the conversation flowing freely?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

You should probably try to keep online communication short. I know it's difficult, but a great time to cut it short is when she's enjoying herself most. Tell her that you need to go and meet some friends, were called in to work, whatever. The important part is that you leave her wanting more, which'll raise her interest level.

Save the longer conversations for once you meet in person (which you should ask to do sooner rather than later).

Why not just say "Chatting online is ok - I'd rather talk in person though - we should get together for a drink/coffee"

If it's just some girl on Facebook why not roll the dice? If you're going to meet at a public place what's the big deal?

Yeah, always meet someone in a public place but set conditions... keep in short in case she doesn't meet your expectations...
 

"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.

Well sure, but its really far too early to ask her out.
Randomly added her due to a few mutual friends, just chatted with her once...
What are good things to talk about??

Her.

Always her.

If the topic of conversation moves away from her onto you; reflect it back at her.
