"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.

I saw my ex-wife today and she looks very pregnant. I have not been informed about this change coming in my child's life. I'm only guessing that she's hoping people will see it as gaining weight. I've been guessing that she was pregnant for a while, but it's become pretty evident now.

We have a child together, and she's most definitely not the world's greatest parent. She has a lot of trouble with our child's behavior when he's at her place (I generally have no trouble). My guess is it's only going to get worse with a new baby in the picture.

Has anybody had this happen? I'm really messed up with thoughts as to what's going to happen after this baby is born.

I saw a similar case however the problem was not so much the mother but her new boyfriend and his preference.
Is she a single mom or she has a man?

She's still with the guy she fvcked while we were married, but I have no clue if this child would actually be his or not. If she fvcked around on me, she'll fvck around on him.

I have no clue what your ex-wife is like. All I know is my whole life has pretty much been a hell because of my mother and I blame my father for not saving me from my mother when I was a child.

Anything you can do to use that against her, such as full custody of your child? And I wouldn't let her or her bf come close to my child if that ever happened to me.
 

"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.

Same thing happening / happened to me.
Same behavior patterns with my son too.

I have him full time now and ... saved his life.
If your child is 12 or over, usually a court of law will let him choose.
How old is your son?

my theory is that the with the new baby she will concentrate less on your son .... and she will be broke..... so if you have to fight for something in court, take advantage of the oppurtunity of being able to afford a better attorney if it comes to that.
however, my hope is that she will become a better parent to your son no matter if she has a new baby or not... because he deserves that.
regardless, he has a wonderful father who will always be there to give him the proper love and guidance.

DES, how funny would it be to suggest to this guy that he get a paternity test after the birth?

When I found out she was cheating with him, I was tempted to get one-on-one with him and casually mention that my herpes were acting up again
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
