"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.

3. What is gay about apologising? ... Women LOVE a guy who does not argue and whine.
Of course they do, so then they get to do whatever they want and completely control the frame of your relationship.

So many things are just not worth an effort. If you...let the crap slide, your woman will take note....
...and will keep pushing and pushing the boundaries until she ends up having no respect for you at all, and walking all over you.

Only apologize if you've really hurt someone or done something wrong. Do not apologize just to end an argument or placate someone. She is extracting power from you with every one of these nonsense encounters. She's chipping away at your mountain with her chisel, and if you let her keep going you will eventually be standing in nothing but rubble. Don't stoop to her level, and if she continues the same behavior once you've exhibited you won't play her game, its time to move along.
