when a girl said this about me:
What a guy
What a guy
"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.
How should I respond to this urgent

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I'd say.. Depends on her tone or delivery.

You don't really give any context, pretty much always escalate. If you don't already have a date planned already, make one. If you do have one already scheduled, then respond back with something flirty but also ending the conversation by telling her you'll see her the day of your date.
A woman's attraction grows when she has time to think and wonder about you, so the more you text and the longer it takes you to make a date the less attracted she'll be to you.

^^This is probably best. But if you must respond:
HB: What a guy
LL: Don't tell anyone, you will ruin my rep

I sincerely hope this chick is your girlfriend. Please say she's your girlfriend.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

You didn't do yourself any favors, I'll say that...
But what's done is done. I'd respond with
"Just don't tell your friends, I wouldn't want them trying to get with me every time you turn your back!
"My use of the emoticon is only to show I'm joking, I typically hate them but in this situation it's OK

crap.
"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.

Define "dating."
Have you had the opportunity to get know her carnally?
Are you talking to other chicks?
How was surprising a chick (who isn't your girlfriend,) with dinner suppose to benefit you?

We've been out on 8-9 dates, and I've cut off com. with my other ladies. I do like her alot, which is uncharted terrority for me.
I guess it was a stupid idea, because i just showed her I cared.

You didn't answer the questions. I didn't ask you those questions to f*ck off time out of my life.
Those questions are pertinent to your situation and your answers are designed to give posters on this thread the needed background information to give you the correct advice. With all of that being said, good ole Rex has four more questions,
Why do you like this chick so much?
What exactly did she do for you to like her so much?
Why did you drop your other chicks?
How was dropping your other chicks suppose to benefit you? Finally you should post a picture of this chick. Rex wants see what the chick who has you sprung looks like.

Here you go. I do appreciate the help
1.) No, i haven't b@nged her yet.
2.) Shes cool to hang out and got's her crap together.
3.) She hasn't done much at all. Paid for some thing but that all
4.) I wanted to be able to focus on her, then typically do my half @ss aprroach and get everything I can before I move on.

"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.
