"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.

I have met a girl that I'm really into. I'm getting all signs of interest She is busy as hell though so I haven't gotten to see her very much : she works two jobs and has to travel a couple of times per month for travel. We've gone out once and I want be able to see her for about another week. Is this a good time to use the tactic of inciting some jealousy. She texts me from work about 10 times per day since she can't make personal calls. She asked me what I was doing this weekend. I was debating about whether it would be a good idea to tell her I have a date this weekend just to possibly make her jealousy and possibly move things forward faster....and also for pre-emptive LJBF prevention?

no you need to meet up with her, these are times when you don't need to play games.

YUP. You only play games when you either suspect that she's playing games first, OR when you know for a fact that you're getting played. Otherwise, keep things as real as possible.

Thanks for the feedback. I guess I will save that trick for when I need it, which hopefully I will not.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Thanks DonS. That's soem good advice! I expect she will text me any minute now so I will probably just avoid replying before she has to go out of town.

Never tell a girl you have a date without her even asking. You're making it blatantly obvious that you have to use tactics to gain her interest.
