"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 was this handled

Long story short. My girlfriend and I went to eat with her sister and brother in law. Everything was going fine and out of nowhere she was being a batch and I called her out on it. I think I caught her off guard because she didn't think I would do it in front of her family, so she became more of a *****. I kept poking at her trying to instigate it further since she was being boring and a ***** the whole time. Anyways, we get outside and she basically says I don't want to talk to you right now. Word. I get her in my truck and blast music, singing and having a good time. Drop Her off at her car and don't even look at her. Haven't talked to her since last night. She is ragging but that's no excuse. Was this handled well? Certainly didn't get quite the response I was after because usually when I put her in her place and be a **** she comes around pretty quick.
 

"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.

I think you may be right. At the time I didn't know how to react though, there was absolutely nothing to make her act the way she did

If you're out and your girl is acting a dummy and you're with friends, you don't call her out on it the moment it's happening especially in front of other people. You shouldn't be that concerned about why her mood changed, women go through sheet like that.

What you do is, end the night early. Exit out of there.

Just go by your principles, if someone is bringing you down or ruining the night, you exit and go do something better.

If you really want to talk about it, that'd be later when she's not in a mood so she can better receive what you're saying.

She might not hit you up because she feels embarrassed. If you wait 5 days after it happened and nothing from her, hit her up to go do something. If she responds move the relationship like that day didn't happen, don't even bring it up.

Making a scene with an audience was less than awesome, but she sounds like a cow and needs to know that the red monster is not a get out of jail free card.

apparently the best way to deal with a woman being a b**** for no reason is to just ignore her until she gets over it

Yeah. I started a thread about this kind of scenario.

When one is arguing with another it is very difficult to keep your composure. One says things & later regrets saying them. Sometimes my girlfriend tells me something that she knows will pi** me off. I have been reacting to it. I'm working on not reacting, keeping my cool..going away thinking it over.
