"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.

This is the first time I want to end the relationship and we both are good and have no issue
 

"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.

Are you exclusive? If not I wouldn't put too much thought into it. Just go a soft NC.

I wouldn't advise acting like something we revile and do everything in our power to avoid (acting beta).

I think you should step up like a man and handle business directly. We men must never forget that if the situation were reversed, any women would coldly drop you in a flash if she thought you weren't right for each other.

best way to do it is break up with her tell her you don't see this going much more and you don't really can spend as much time with her

Dear Evan,
Do nothing...Just let things flow....events have a natural synergy of their own....At the same time,get out your little black book and spin plates!
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

We assume we are exclusive but we havent really discuss this subject, I make it clear many time we are still knowing each others , but not sure how she is understanding it, I tried stay not that close from her , but she keep flirting and trying to push it more and I can understand why

I used to ponder this alot myself, but since I've started to try online dating I've had to reject so many women I've almost gotten used to it.

Most take it pretty OK, but if she tries to spin it on you (fault, disappointment) block her after a short exchange.
Don't offer to stay friends (unless you know you can and want to), do not add to facebook. Never talk again.

By the way, why do you always reply like you are super interested? You are deceiving, she might be surprised and devastated. If your interest is low then show it man... no need to use "game" just because she's vulnerable to you.

Actually I have this girl right now who I thought was a good match but I'll have to let her go. Haven't texted for days because I simply didn't think of her. Hoping it just peters out by itself but if she calls me out I will end it honest and clean.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
