"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.

Im as guilty of this as anyone but you need to let this girl go...

I kind of agree with you mate.. its been alot of drama since I started seeing her..


But on this occasion, she might be thinking that I am seeing another woman, because she found those hairs in my bathroom..

She has been cheated on in the past, so I can see how something like this would bother her.. but I have explained the situation, so why has she escalate things further

I wont lie, I really like this chick, but the games are really making me doubt her..


maybe I should ask her what her problem is? See how she responds.. Maybe I should tell her straight, if she plays games from here on, then I will walk away for good
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I would subtly arrange for your gf and the other girl to meet. Run into them by accident at a bar at least. Then she'll see the reality - which is much less of a threat to her than what she is imagining. Not knowing the other girl is making her imagination run wild.

None of this is logical; you did nothing wrong. But being the one who is correct has nothing to do with winning arguments with women. Logic by itself doesn't work. You have to win over her emotions.

Every single time, I had a situation come up like this I got burned...
Imho it sounds like she is either very insecure or guilty of something herself. :kick: Maybe shes lost intrest or perhaps met a better option. I wouldnt wait around to try and figure it out. My older brother had a saying that went like this: "If you can't trust me then I can't trust you".

Think about it.:yes:

I hate to say it but I think that she's looking for an excuse to break up with you. I would prepare myself for it if I were in your shoes.

I hope I'm wrong.

She's treating you like a boyfriend who has something to be sorry for, and you're playing along. Quit it.

You're the one who should be sending the long awaited one word texts, if anything at all. She should be apologizing to you and asking HER friends "what do I do?"
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Update guys...

So she sent me a text yesterday and it said AFTERNOON

I just ignored and carried on with my day.. Ignored her all day... last night I get a text saying.. why are you avoiding me?

I gnored for about an hour.. then replied, just been busy with stuff.. then she start asking me how my day has been, blah blah blah

Anyhow she wants to meet me on tonight, and she even suggested having sex!


My guess is, this was a **** test... she became distant and thought she could punish me, but I didn't panick and start texting her like crazy.

Then when I ignored her text, think it was her who started to panick

Don't let her use sex as a manipulation tool cause she will.

Trust issues are a big thing and if she doesn't trust you your relationship is going to be a mess from here on out.

She will always be questioning you thinking you are up to no good. Then you will have to explain your whereabouts turning into more of a beta while she tries to control you.

She could think you're cheating on her and she can cheat on you.

Too much drama and $hit to deal with an untrusting and insecure chick.

She did you a favor showing her true colors early on.

It's all apart of the screening process looking for red flags of insecurity and crappy behavior.

She should be screened out and let go.

If you let it slide it's going to lead to worse problems down the road.

It's up to you what you want to but this is your best choice to avoid further problems with her.
