"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.

Theres this girl i like, hung out with her for the 2nd time tonight. First time we chilled and tonight I teased her a good amount. I stopped the teasing at end of night when she said i was mean, but then we made up. We used "kino" as we were kinda touchy, wrestling and fooling around.

Thing is, she was kinda like this with my other 2 friends (one girlfriend, one whos single). Advantage I have?? Well she only called me and texted me yesterday to make sure we were chilling.

I teased her a litttle about liking me and stuff and taking everything too fast (ofcourse kidding) and she just kinda teased me back.

Now i'd like to make things clear that us two are hooking up...between us. Do I just talk to her normally? or mention somtin? Where do i go from here to seal the deal?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Your doing great. Its in your hands!

Be direct about it your feelings, ask her out.

Females love a few qualities, we men have.

Our frankness, and our "laid back" mentality.

Tell me how it goes. I am acually in a similar situation, however I think my girl just acts that way with everyone. Thus, I am waiting for the oppurtune moment. As of right now, I know she won't go for me. Not yet..

Ask if she is up for another night. Don't consider it as a date. Spend time with her, it will end up into one.

At the end of this "date" look into her eyes, have a conversation and you will know what to do.

Trust your instinct. Our predessors benefited from this barbaric concept, now it's your turn.

It works wonders. It beats planning and overthinking things.

Just set up a casual date, and let it build up.

If you want to "hook up" it might screw up the relationship. Dating is a different story, however.
