"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.

So recently I started using some dating sites. Have been having sh1t luck of course. I can manage to get some responses from girls, even a couple; then they will drop off. When I don't think I did anything stupid, but who knows.(and yes I know it's a crappy method for chicks but I am going to meet them in the real world too, don't worry)

Anyways, I did manage to get a # from one(These are good lookin girls too, at least 6.5-7's). I sent her a text yesterday, just told me what her name was, said she had her daughter and would have to talk to me later.(Again, not looking to be a baby daddy, just lookin for some poon so don't worry)

I just ignored it, figured w/e. She texted me today just asking what was up. I just said "Workin. How about you?" I just got a "Sh1t" back.

Now I understand these girls are going to start w/ low IL considering they've never even seen me in person. But I've had messages on the dating site like that too. I just hate the idea of having to entertain them or prove myself. Just figured the chicks would want to initiate themselves. but then againt hey have dudes throwing themselves at them constantly.

Anyway, what you would say to that lame one word response?
 

"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.

something funny.

"you just stepped in dog sh1t?" make it fun.

Instead of replying with the truth (working) mix it up and again make it fun/exciting.
"Working. How about you?" is flat.

I've been doing some online dating in the last few months myself.

I usually hit them up for a coffee or lunch date within 3 emails.

They or I or both give phone numbers the day before "just in case something comes up."

s.hit luck is normal don't sweat it.

Out of 10 girls I contact I'll only hear back from 3 or 4 which is pretty much the norm.

Keep it up. It's fun and at the very least good practice.

I bet chicks on dating websites can"t move for messages off of men who don't get real life poon. It's a buyers market and sadly it's the boys who are selling
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
