"Blank Mind on Dates? She's Dropping Hints You Keep Missing"

The plates get cleared and the silence lands like a brick. You can feel her waiting. Your brain offers up your commute, your job, the weather — topics that have ended more second dates than bad breath.

Here's what most guys never learn: women hand out free conversational material all night long. Tiny clues about what they actually want to discuss. Catch them and you never run out of things to say — because she's telling you what to say next.

Rule 4 of the "22 Rules" trains your ear to catch every single one.

I was out the other day for lunch with a girl from work who I hardly ever talk to. During lunch she told me that she had a boyfriend 3 or 4 times. each time she told me this I just didn't care and I never gave her any reaction to it. I really didn't care because I wasn't that interested in her. I also never made a move on her at all. So I couldn't figure out why she would tell me that. Did she really think that I was interested in her? Maybe she was just full of herself.

well.. After a few days I realized that maybe she is trying to tell me this so that she doesn't feel bad if anything happens. hmm...

Anyone have a similar experience. Could the "I have a boyfriend" line mean something totally different in this context?
 

"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.

Definitely check that link out that Cpt. Jack Sparrow gave ya. I just read it- priceless info there. Some of those things would be so funny to say, and see a reaction from.

What does it matter if:

"I really didn't care because I wasn't that interested in her."

Cracks me up. Anyway, the answer is no. Especially if she said it 3-4 times. If she was doing it because she just wanted you to be aware of it for when she sleeps with you, she would have just mentioned it once and hoped you didn't hear it.
