"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.

Ok so i went to dinner with this girl, and we ended up drinking a lot of beer and just chillin for about 3 hours. At the end of the meal she paid for half and i paid for half. We talked about a lot of things, and had a lot of fun. Now when we were leaving i tried to kiss her, but she pulled away. I don't remember exactly what she said because i was drunk, but she said something along the lines of us having to do this again. (Maybe she didn't kiss because my friend who showed up to drive me home was a couple feet away) Then as my friend was driving me home, she sent me a text saying "you're awesome, not gonna lie :)"
And recently she's been asking me when we're gonna hang out again and go drinking. So what do y'all think of this situation?
 

"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.

Sounds a little weird, but interesting.

I guess it can't hurt to give it another shot. Just keep a low profile. Don't text her too much and keep her guessing about your interest levels in her.

Yeah, kinda threw me off. Well she is gone for the week to Walt Disney World, but when she gets back she said she wants to chill again. I think maybe I'll turn on the charm then try to kiss her again haha

You're "awesome". You two drank beer together and "talked". She wants to "chill" with you again.

With the info you provided it sounds like you're gonna be friendzoned.

I wouldn't even trip about it. It could of been a number of things. Maybe she thought you were being a sloppy drunk, or whatever.

Had you not explained that she has already attempted hanging out with you again I would of said ignore her, but there is obviously some level of interest there.

Whatever it was, the quickest way to fail with this is to show that it bothered you. Act like you don't even remember. Try again on the next date, and report back. :)
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
