Earlier in the week i was approached and asked by a girl what i thought about her. her friend had tried to hook us up like a year ago. never really had this kind of approach nor situation before how would a dj w years experience respond with words?
"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.
"So what do you think about me"?

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Either toss it back to her:
"What do you think I think about you?" or
"What should I think of you?"
"What do you think I think about you?" or
"What should I think of you?"

But then she asks "Why do you think I'm cool?..."
What can you say besides something about her tits?

i actually said that i told her "you seem kinda cool" and then i told her a few good qualities but i limited how much i told her and i told her i'd like to get to know her better. now shes asked how she can get in touch with me i gotta figure out a way to take back the dominance (or lead). suggestions?
"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.

Everytime I got this line thrown at me, she's trying to assure herself that she's up to your standards.
So, you tell her that you think she's cool, because if she wasn't, then you wouldn't be there talking to her. However, *pushes the on button for the rating system*, you got 2 points for trying.
