Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

So this girl and I started chatting on Messenger couple nights ago, she lives just half an hour away from me (in Albania, a small country in Europe). About 6 months ago, she broke up a LTR that she'd had for 7 years with a guy, she's just 21. We hit off the convo very nicely, she closed her Facebook account for her birthday cause couldn't stand the wishes on her wall, but that night, after the birthday day, opened it up again, we chatted for a while late into morning hours. Next day we started Skyping, that same night we were talkin' about some thoughts of mine and suddenly her eyes just fill up, she starts crying. Apologized, apparently took care of herself and whatever she was crying for and we talked after about 2 hours again in Skype, she seemed more calm and was just looking like she was lost in my look or sth.. like she was enjoying just hearing me tell her sth. OK, it's become more intense since that day and today it kinda "slipped" her mouth and told me "do you remember the first night when slept together?", than giggled and rushed to say she didn't mean "slept", but "talked", than kinda repeated the same "mistake", laughing.

However, here's the thing: she keeps on stating that she's not looking for anything more than friendship with me, she just enjoys the communication bla bla bla and when I call her out on this bull****, she laughs and just skips. Now, I get this girl is into me, she's just been hurt before and is trying to stop the feelings she feels from our communication.

Any thoughts, any strategies, tips? Anything would be appreciated :)
 

"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.

Ignore everything she said and get her on a date immediately.

Don't be too available and chat for hours on messager or skype or her interest will plummet. Use these to set dates then go scarce until the date. Being too available will get you friend zoned.

Right behind you
You: "blah blah blah"
Her: "blah blah blah"
You: "blah blah blah on and by the way, let's hang out sometime."
