"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.

It doesn't only need to be what G_Govan said either, talking about exes can be a sign of a plain dumb girl. They just aren't intelligent enough to think of and understand that talking about exes is negative. I'd consider it a signal that she's either stupid or using you for attention and validation, and in either case I would stop taking any initiatives with her.

Women don't talk about other men because they're dumb, that label is reserved for the guy who actually sits there and listens to it.

It's your job to pick up on the covert, that's how they communicate.

Big red flag if she badmouths all of her ex's. This one cheated on me, this one treated me poorly, this one was still in love with his ex, etc. They fail to realize two things

1. It makes her look stupid and like she holds grudges (she's a scorekeeper)
2. It makes it look like she may be the problem, not them. Maybe they got tired of her sh*t and bounced. Maybe she is just impossible to deal with. Maybe she has a habit of picking low quality guys (most likely).

you know, I am not really interested in her anymore after she:


1. "forgot" about our 4th date, and said she was sorry FIVE DAYS LATER.
2. talked about her ex three times during dinner, eventhough I changed the subject.
3. talked about several male 'friends'.
4. didnt have sex yet.

If she initiates fine, I can hang out with her, have a drink or two etc and see if we fvck.

If she doesnt...I just dont care.

Its funy how she just made me lose interest in her, normally it is the other way around lol

Not in all cases. Some women do it on purpose, others are just so clueless and dumb that they don't know better, just like someone who can't read basic social cues. They don't think (intelligently) before speaking and will mention their exes in conversations because they happen to think of them in the moment for whatever reason. I agree that you shouldn't be a chump and take it but not every single thing is only about reflecting back on a man's game... you have to hold them responsible for their own actions.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

You can't even worry about this one. I wouldn't worry about her unless you are going over there or she is coming over to your place. A movie night with a drink to "chill"... And if she turns you down to make out and approach sex, you gotta cut her loose.
