"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.

He wants to know if he should verify the date too. I usually don't.
* Unless I need to embark on a journey of 20+ miles, I wait until they write. I don't send date reminders. One reason I spoil them on dates is so I can be secretly happy if they blow me off (I save).

* They should text you sometime either the day before or day of (by 2pm or so) and will say "We're still on for tonight right?" And you say "Of course!" and they reply "I'm excited!!!"

* A lot of times I'll follow through with the plan regardless. I'll write "I'll be at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse at the bar at 8:15PM on Saturday, it's at 123 Main street in Midtown, 31249". If they text a confirmation, I'll be there. If they don't show, I text a picture of my entrée when it arrives, then shut my ringer off.

* The Low Interest Filter - Often the day before the date, I text a sweet nothing message. If they don't reply, I cancel the date the day of, around 3pm, anticipating a flake. If they really want to go, they will put some effort in and say "No, I'm so disappointed! I already started getting ready...." and you can make an exception.

* The moral is: only date women who REALLY like you.

"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.

Solid thread, this sort of knowledge should be required to graduate high school or get a GED
Decent threat. Honestly, it's simpler.

Don't text. The phone is a communication device to plan dates. Use it as such and nothing more. Anything stupid you send will be used against you, and forever there for her to see.
