"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.

My example: she just texted me to tell me she is crying because she got a very bad mark for her thesis.

My first thought: I would be way more sympathetic if she did not tell me "I am crying".

So damn annoying...

I'm thinking I should call her on it, but then again it is pretty devastating to work so hard on a thesis only to get a bad mark. I have not talked to her yet; that was twenty minutes ago.

What do you guys think?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I know that information, it's great. But it doesn't answer my post. What's the right response - call her on it, make her feel angry about it?

Why don't you try being there for her and supporting her?

There's nothing wrong with making her feel better about a bad situation like that once in a while. If she cries over every little thing, then you might have a problem on your hands, but as it is, you should just be supportive, tell her it'll be ok, and then take her out to have some fun to help her forget about it.
 

"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.

Why not just let her be. Women cry often when they don't know how to deal with a problem once they stop crying they feel better about it so there is no need to get angry or sound the alarm bells. She will come around.

Whatever you do, don't voulenteer to be there for her or solve her problem if she hasn't asked from you.

Agreed.

Thesis...that's a BIG DEAL, there's nothing wrong with her crying about that. The fact that she told you she's crying means that she trusts you and is asking for your support right now. Why would you be annoyed over something like that?

When she cries sock her in the face. Blood and tears combining release a chemical known as Xerotyphofane, which increases the sex drive and boosts endorphins.

Emotional women tend to be more sexual. You take the good with the bad.

Replace "sexual" with "feminine" then I am in agreement!!

She is looking for emotional support and not your rational response - give it to her - not asking for much - is she? Unless her premise on her thesis was "Hors are a legitimate entity in 21st century America!!" If so, then slap the ho!!!!! http://www.aeonity.com/ab/games/simulation/slap-that-ho.php
 

"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.

Falcon, you must have the keys to The Matrix!! No one individual has done such speed in such a short while and with less attempts then your stated amount!! Only the Australian Street Pimp - DJ Lost In Translation himself has claimed such!!!
 

"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.

There's a difference between "being there for her" and "solving her problem". She NEVER wants you to solve her problem. NEVER.

But "solving her problem" is the OPPPOSITE of "being there for her".

Clearing that up.
