"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.

Rite say for instance your girl has jus text messaged you saying "I need a hug :( xx" is it ok to ring up and see whats wrong etc or is that something a friend wud do? I get confused at where the line is drawn between acting liek a friend and not her love muscle!
Another example say Ur busy with ur boys and she rings and says "i'm stuck locked out my house no keys and i have to go to work"

Would u leave ur boys and go help her (Show the caring side)????
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

your girl...I need a hug
Girl-friend..or friend?
GF - I would...
friend... ask her what's up, let her blab for a few minutes, if it's really depressing, throw her off by giving her her hug in a really big way...or if it's just petty stuff, pick her up and carry her around.

"i'm stuck locked out my house no keys and i have to go to work"
1. depends on what I was doing
2. you would ENSURE she pays you back "I'll come pick you up if you make me supper at your house"

Basically, you're using the caring to be slightly ****y, there's nothin wrong with caring, as long as you get some payback. :p
