"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.

She gave her number, then took it back

Im curious about this one.

Met a girl at the bank, pretty good looking and late 20s. I asked for her number and email. She gave both on separate pieces of paper. Five minutes later she asked for the paper with her number and crossed it out and ripped it up. Still have the email.

Wondering what the thoughts were.

1) She suddenly remembered she had a boyfriend?
2) Number is too personal in 2017?
 

"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.

Why would you ask for both number an email. Kind of odd. Next time get her number and put it in your phone, and txt her right away just a quick "sup its me" and be on your way

The bottom line is she isn't interested. Her boyfriend/ lover is in first place. She may have liked your attention.

Move on. Don't waste any time with this one.

Case closed.
