"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.

Quick...

Chatted with this chick on pof. Hit it off. She seemed very interested.

Anyway..yesterday I came out and was like 'whats your weekend looking like'
Said she had nothing planned except on Sunday. I was like 'OK, Friday night let's get together'. She asked where and I told her a spot where we could kick it and shoot pool and just get to know each other. Did not add all that text...just the specifics. She kinda dodged it and didn't message back until this morning with just a 'Hi.' I replied about 7 hours later to punish her for taking so long and was very brief. We made small talk about our work schedules.
She asked about mine and then I asked about hers. Once she replied I made a joke and said 'Good...not trying to beat you in pool at 10 am in the morning anyway ;)' Chick just went ghost for the rest of the day "all of the sudden". I see some things I may have possibly done wrong but just need some experienced hands on deck to tell me so I can improve but also how to handle it at this point.

Thanks in advance
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

SEEMED is the operative word here.

Online dating is ALL about looks. Game is practically irrelevant. All girls online are flaky to the 10th degree. It is a numbers game by default when you go online.

There is no room to "improve". Just look your best and hope for a bite. Whether your game is top notch or you have no game to speak of, expect 80%+ to flake on you.

It's no big deal. Move on and stop giving online girls a second thought.
