"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.

Well guys... I left this site a long time ago thinking I knew all that I needed to, and that I needed to just start living and stop analyzing. Now I have been in a really weak relationship with a girl for over 2 months. I got so frustrated I came back to this site...

and I realized that I completely forgot everything I had ever learned from this site. I am THE afc. I have done just about EVERYTHING wrong with this girl now... called too much, always available, immediately returning calls, spilling my guts, being a little *****....

and what seemed at first like a nice possible LTR is a fleeting, awkward relationship, and I have seen her with another guy a few times now.

Now I KNOW i SHOULD just next this girl.... hell i actually have a date with another girl in a few hours... but I am curious as to what would happen if I just started treating her like she treats me... pretty much ignoring her and being too busy... what would happen. I can tell the girl WANTS to like me but cant because I have been to much of a little AFC and not even a little bit of a man! I mean we would have been GREAT together if I had just retained what I had learned from this site. I think that if I ignore her for a week she will start calling me more and show more signs of interest.


The girl is kind of weird... i mean she talks about taking me home for the weekend and meeting my family, then ignores me for a week, then calls acting all interested. I can't say I dont blame her for only wanting to talk to me once a week...

Basically, after writing that I dont really need to ask my question, which was going to be "Do I take the immediate pain of ending this now or try to restore it and take the risk of even more pain later on? Do I just try not to think about her and keep dating around (which both of us are doing) and see if I can fix this, or do I end it now as much as I dont want to?"

I know what my answer will be....
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Hahahaha :crackup:

While you're wondering about her, she's swallowing some guy whole.

Ah well live and learn.

Cheers!
