I recently got this girls number off POF after TWO messages. Almost as soon as she gave me her number she deleted her profile. She said she's in Nigeria for ten days then will come back stateside. She's not on social media. She said she works at a legit place that's near me. And she's originally from a different state and her number matches that claim. I'm still pretty suspicious she could be a fake, she also said she couldn't call because she doesn't have her number activated there or facetime because her camera is broken. But she hasn't asked for money and has sent full body pics that are pretty clear. She seems pretty interested in getting to know me and we even did the 'good night' and 'good morning' texts. But I'm still HIGHLY skeptical she is fake. Thoughts?
"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.
Is she a fake?

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Total scam. Someone else reported her and the management removed her profile.
Thanks, good to know.
