"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.

Girl is meeting with her ex today to get some of her belongings back. She's moving away though (state over where we made plans to move together if I decide to school there) I'm wondering though if they'll give each other a "goodbye kiss"

Seems like ill never know, kinda troubling. Anyway I can mention my 0 tolerance for this before they meet up? How should I handle it?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I would say :nono: BOBTRG but I'd first ask why would you date someone you aren't sure is over her ex or is it just a lack of your ability to trust her.

Bobtrg?

He was supposed to drop off couple things and shed give me a call, that was over 2 hours ago. Am I wrong for assuming the worst right now?

Theres no reason for a girl your dating to ever be associated with a guy thats f*cked her. Sounds fishy to me, i'd go ahead and put her on hooking up with him.....maybe a bit negative but that going to "get back belongings" excuse is so obvious.
