"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.

In this situation I reckon I might have overplayed the game too much.I've spent time flirting and buildng raport with a girl,while at the same time I've remained just that little bit out of reach to keep her guesing.
However all this has led to the girl thinking I have no interest in her.Recently she said she thought that she was nt my type and the odd compliment I drop she says I'm lying.
So whats the deal.Is she fishing for reasurrance or have I become too aloof for her.
As for the "I dont think I'm your type" comment,I had no answer to it and offered a lame "maybe" answer.
 

"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.

Have you tried actually asking her out?

Save your drama for your mama.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I'd start showing a little more interest, and see how she responds or kinda let her know that she's doing OK or your somewhat INTERESTED in her.

Go ahead, ask her out. Tell her you guys should go out and have something to do.

She's trying to manipulate you into "persuading" her that she IS your type, aka pursuing her; the best response is, "You're right, you're NOT my type, but you're not too bad."
