"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.
How do you respond to a girl openly stating "I like attention and compliments"

"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.

Let's go somewhere private where we can show each other things that like attention and compliments.Reckoning said:

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Only the typical spoiled, narcissistic, attention wh0re modern women would utter such garbage. They don't deserve your attention and time.
"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.

The problem is if she percieves guys who treat her nice just so they can get inside her pants as "friends" who like her for her great "personality". This is used by girls who need a self esteem boost, they are incompetent and have very little to offer to society, which is where their low self evaluation sprung from, and since they are nothing but their looks, they use this in a twisted way, lying even to themselves that guys like them for the great person they are
which is OK, its a free world, whatever floats her boat.In the end, its just a temporary boost for her, since deep down inside she realises she is useless, so in the long run these girls are losers, and will never be happy :}
So again, this is not a bad thing, who doesnt like compliments? Question is, is she real, or deluding herself?

"So does my dog!"
From there on, give minimal attention and eye contact. At pro level, statements like that will turn you off instantly.
