"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.

Have any of you guys ever been used by a girl to get at a friend of yours?

I'm trying to figure out this chick's deal. I think she's using me to get at a friend of mine. Both of us have slept with her (him first), and he's sure she wants to date him (but he's seeing someone that he's not about to drop). I want to get another crack at her so when she added me to fb I accepted. Have her number too, an while shes calling me I think it's just to make my buddy jealous. For instance, last night she called me and stayed on the phone for over a half hour. She make a joke that she should come over and **** me, spend the night then sneak into my buddy's room in the morning and scare him. I'm not sure what's she's planning with this ****. I want to **** her again, my buddy doesn't care and even supports it.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

This has happened to me. Last year at school, my friend and I were in a class with a HB 7.5. My friend is in a LTR, so he had no intention. Meanwhile, HB 7.5 and I clicked and I asked her out. She said yes and all was good. IMO, the date went well. She seemed to be having fun and I controlled the frame throughout. She "definitely" wanted to go on another date.

Within the next couple of days, it was easy to see that we were "done." She would barely talk and started acting funny. In class the next week, my friend was going on and on about some places he had been to near campus lately and that he wanted to check them out again. Out of nowhere, HB 7.5 eagerly wants to go. The next class, he and I go to a nearby Panera Bread after class. She overheard him mention the place and immediately wanted to go too since she can hang out. She even tried playing the jealousy card on him by saying she was kinda seeing someone. It was too easy to find the holes in that fabricated story.

Her attempts were futile. My friend obviously stuck with his gf, I haven't spoken with this girl since and have no idea where she is now.

My advice for you is to look into other available options. If this one works out, it's a great bonus. You can try to ask this girl out or try and get with her again, but don't become too invested in it.

Girls do that stuff all the time. They think they're being clever. But in reality the dude she's boning is probably just happy to get some sex. And the guy she's trying to make jealous doesn't give a f**k anyway.

It's always the same damn thing.

I'm always looking into other available options. Currently I'm planting seeds with several girls, some of which are looking promising (I'll probably try for a meet up with these girls in the next week).

The only reason I even posted this was to see if anyone's been in a similar situation. This girl's behavior is baffling, especially when she's calling and texting me multiple times a day but clearly likes my buddy.

she's trying to turn you into her chick friend. Ignore half of that **** if not more. Have the mindset of banging her while communicating as little as possible.

Think of 2 girls in a bar, one a 10 one only a 7. Some guys would befriend the 7 to talk to the 10.

Im sorry, and I don't mean to insinuate you're a 7 or your friend is better looking. But that's whats happening here. I know you banged her....but don't start having long chats w/ her over text etc. Or on the phone. Be short, quick, and if the text is useless don't answer.
 

"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.

Girls do this a lot. They always have options and you need to gain more options OP. Pump and dump. Or you'll be her emotional tampon. Be the guy that women want to f**k, not marry or be the chick friend. That is a bunch of bullsh*t and is also for suckers. Oneitis seems to be the cause of this. That's why many of the experts say spin more plates.

Case closed. Keep searching.

Lol, the search never stops. But why not continue to chill with a chick if u like her and your gaming others? I think the whole pump and dump every girl mindset is retarded.

EDIT: actually scratch that, I'm cutting this chick off
