"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

So I met this girl at a party a few weeks ago, but nothing happened..a lil flirting, but thats about it. She left before I could get a chance to initiate anything. A few days later she adds me on myspace and I get her screen name from there. We chat, but i'm rarely on AIM so its been on and off..talked about twice on AIM and not for long. She's pretty hot, but she's also a sophmore, and I'm a senior (is this off grounds?). My friend is having a party next week and I'm debating whether to invite her or not. Its either invite her to that, or go out to a movie w/ her sometime. Either way, I plan on talkin to her on AIM and getting her # so I can make plans.

Which option would you do? She seems like a good person to take to prom to since i don't want to take anyone I've hooked up with before or anyone that is just a friend. Invite her to the party, or invite her on a date?

I'm not sure how high her interest level is since its been a while since we met (~ a month) and we haven't talked much...I plan on chatting her a bit more on AIm, then when I see the right time, ask her for her # and tell her I'll call her up w/ plans sometime.
 

"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.

That's what I plan on doing. I'll probably take her out to a movie. I'm going to break the ice a bit on AIM where I can feel comfortable w/ her. I've found once I've done this, its A LOT easier to talk to them.
