"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.

Firstly there's this girl in uni whom I've been chatting and bantering with. We have chemistry, and I get this positive vibe off her, but I think she may be playing hard to get. For example

Me: I'll be going on a trip next week so you probably won't seem me for a while...
Her: Why should I care.

Now I don't see her that often, perhaps once or even twice a week if lucky. I saw her for the second time this week in the library but decided to just ignore her and not even acknowledge her presence. She eventually left the library, while I sat there on the computer looking busy. Will this go in for my favour, giving an image that I'm a busy guy with business to do, and not going to mess about chatting her up every time.

Secondly, as a man I understand that the man does have to make the move if he likes someone. But, does that mean he will initiate every single conversation he has with the woman? Wouldn't that go against the man's favour? Should the man at some point wait for the woman to initiate conversation?

Cheers
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

You may be mistaking hard to get with impossible to get.

she pretty much told you she doesnt want you in that sentence its pretty clear.
that plus ignoring you existed at the library.

I think you have no plates and you're going all AFC, reading signals and chemistry that just aren't there.

NEXT.
 

"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.

Be wonderful, then be gone.

You forgot the first step.

Girls do not play hard to get. As a general rule.

Yes, ignoring a woman may make you look less needy, which is a good thing. But I do not think it matters in this case since it seems like she has a low interest level (IL).

It doesn't take a whole lot of interaction with a woman to gauge her IL. If during your interaction(s) with her she gives you indicators of interest (IOIs), then go ahead and ask her out. If she doesn't give you IOIs, then she's not interested, and you should leave her alone (or you should prepare to be rejected if you decide to ask her out anyway).
