"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.

Standard operating procedure for me is to limit texting as much as possible, but what do you do If a girl brings it up?

One plate texts me at least 3 tines a day to initiate and has mentioned that I don't text back much, she said she just likes being in touch and talking to me. I've told her that when I'm busy generally I leave my phone in the office or in my gym locker but she still beings it up. I.e

"Wish you texted more :-("

"Miss you"

etc

I'm not having any issues getting her to hang out etc but in this situation should I text her a bit more?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Eh depends on how you feel man, stop referring to the old spanish guy manual. There are Xs and Os in this situation that we're not familiar with.
This is up to you, if I was you I'd maybe text her a little more just a tad. Don't want to make it seem like you're uninterested when you're just playing a game.

I wouldn't text more, all that's going to do is feed into her needy behavior. Just tell her you're busy with work, school, gym or whatever & that you'll talk to her when you have time.

Once you start with the texting, it will start increasing all during the day.

Be adamant on your position and only reply when YOU want to. The moment she feels she can manipulate you by playing "poor me" or using any emotion, it's game over.

Unknowingly, she actually likes that you don't text her much. That's what makes her attracted to you. It gives her time to "miss you" so keep it up.
 

"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.

Agreed. Sounds counterproductive. But...the fact that she feels like you don't text enough, or gets upset when you take a while to reply or don't reply at all, tells me you're doing something right. Because during those times you're on her mind and the hamster is spinning wondering what you're doing. So keep it up for sure.
