"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.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

These are all fairly common psychological symptoms of modern society

Tell her to get off social media , establish a healthy diet and sleep routine , start journalling , walking / hiking , meditation

No alcohol for at least 6 weeks

Maybe get a pet

She has been in therapy for 2 years which i up mostly respect her for recognize her own behavior, many just doesn't and became worst.
the most annoying part is her diminished interest or pleasure in almost all activities, and that include sex that could wane out of no where.. pheww that svcks. and promiscuity often might came along when she got bored. but these are not even nearly as close as BPD which are truly the Queen on crazies.
