"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.

Found this on another forum...made me chuckle inside...


I met this lady a few months ago, she didn't want to give me her phone number when i asked, but offered me her email instead. Since then we have exchanged lots of emails (almost daily) and have been on a couple of dates (One lunch date and a dancing date). After the second date, she told me she had a few tough weeks ahead of her (she is in medical school and has a full time job at the same time) and she wouldn't be very available for anything.

A few days ago, after not hearing from her for a while, i called one of those flower shops and have them deliver her some really nice flowers (no roses) at her office.
She responded to me with an email where she thanked me for the flowers, praised the choice i made.
She then went on to say that her life is too crazy and she didn't think anyone can put up with her...She said, she couldn't offer me more than her friendship ...Then she concluded by asking me to let her know, if she was being too harsh ...
I would like anyone's input on the followings:
1. Was it ok for me to send her flowers at this stage? When should a man give a lady flowers? What's your experience?
2. Should i move on and/or continue looking elsewhere?

Input welcome ... especially from ladies...
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I don't really come here for advice per se as I'm very confident and have the whole picking up girls thing down very well...I just like reading about other people's experiences and learning from the mistakes of others and giving my two cents where I think I can help. Found this forum in an old thread where someone was looking for a forum frequented by women. I went there and browsed around, and it's funny cause the women seem to be just as clueless as men. Gives a good insight into the dating scene as a whole. Worth checking out in my opinion...lots of AFC's and good examples of what not to do. Like one guy was out with a girl three times and wondering when he should tell her how much he cares about her and make their relationship exclusive. Ouch! Seriously thinking about making an account and giving some of these guys advice that will help them out.

Maybe he should ask himself if he was being a pvssy.
 

"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.

And the flowers were the icing on the cake, but the most disturbing thing to me was how she didn't give him her phone number at first and they exchange some friendly emails, go on a day "date" and dancing, after which she says she's busy and won't have time to do anything with him and even goes as far as to say all she's offering him is friendship, and for some reason he thinks she's into him. Some people live in an altered state of reality. If you follow the thread, he gets responded to by two girls, both who tell him that sending flowers was the right thing to do.
