"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.

Today, i went to my city's annual celebration of itself. I was supposed to meet a girl there(my friend told me she likes me, and i can tell she does when i talk to her), but i had to help out take apart stuff, and move things. I didn't get a chance to talk to her after because she had to go to church, and it was getting late.

I won a stuffed penguin, so i told her i have a surprise for her tomorrow, and she is just dying to know what it is. Tomorrow at school, probably in the morning, i am gonna say "I won this penguin. If you want it, you gotta do something for me" when she asks what she has to do, i'll say "Meet me here at lunch, and hang out with me". What do you guys think of that?
 

"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.

I don't see why it wouldn't work. It doesn't matter how you ask her. If she likes you, she'll say yes.

My bed, your girl.
hmm good but I'd change asking her if she wants it to something like "I'm gonna give it to you after we hang out at lunch".

It's just more fun and less of the typical "you gotta do something for me" stuff.

Well, i stuck to my plan, and this morning i couldnt get her alone(I didnt have enough time, i had to go to class) So i said my line:flowers: , but she didn't respond -_- She just stood there, but luckily i know a couple of her friends and they said "Just say yes!" so i gave her the stuffed animal and went to class. Then came lunch, we just talked at lunch, but nothing really happened. It was like one of our convo's we have online(which isn't a bad thing). Should i do the same thing tomorrow? If i do it tomorrow, i wanna get some kino cuz that didn't happen today, so i need some tips on how to initiate kino!!! Thx for the help guys:cool:

Edit: One more thing, if this helps, i've known her since last march, but we never really started talking until a couple weeks ago
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Actualy, forget what I said. Maybe do the same concept, with the prize being a date or something like that.

You're overanalyzing, so just make her a cool card and give it to her.
You don't even need to buy the paper!
 

"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.
