"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.

Hi guys,

I was banging this plate some 4 years ago for some 6 months before dropping it ( as I found better options) but now i want to have a crack at it again. So we got back in touch, but right on the 1st date we had where she come to my place she got very defensive asking where was this going, and why I dropped her like a sack of potatoes all those years ago. I told her i didnt want a relationship at the time, and suggested now to just let it flow and see where it takes us, without making any promises. Her defenses are quite high at the moment and even though we are going out, last time I invited her for dinner at my place she said she couldnt that day, but also said she felt my invitation had "second intentions" or a hidden agenda.

Whats the best way to go about this now, just being patient and continue to go out and flirt with her, or tell her that the only way to see if this can lead anywhere is if we get intimate like we have before, and see how it goes, because im not interested in being a platonic friend?
 

"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.

I don't see an alternative to hanging out with her and making a move (or repeatedly doing so).

If she's asking these questions about what happened all those years ago, but is still actively meeting up with you, she is probably still interested on some level and wants to see where things go, but she was also probably a little hurt last time. It could be worth it to look into how you ended it with her, if you were cordial and explained the situation clearly, or if you just went ghost or whatnot.

It's up to you whether or not the patient approach she may need is worth it. Personally, if a woman has her guard up around me and won't let me fvck her without serious work, then I won't bother with her unless I really think she may have the potential to be more than just FWB.

I wouldn't have invited her over right away...that obviously is going to lead to her defenses being high...think about it. Invite her out for a drink somewhere and if she is still attracted to you it won't be very hard to get her all hot and bothered while you two are out.

I did go ghost that time before. Told her now it was because I just didnt want a relationship at the time (bullsh*t)

It does sound like the best way to go.

Since she declined my invitation on last saturday to come over on sunday, should I wait til next week for another invite for drinks?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Yeah, you can try that...just pretend her declined offer never happened and invite her out for a drink and say you want to catch up with her. Just go out and have fun. It will happen soon enough if there is still attraction.
