"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.

"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 love the contradicting ones - Must open doors for her and must pay on the first date (so she likes an old fashioned guy), but he can't get her flowers on the first date.
Then she wants a guy who is in shape, but he can't have six pack abs.
And can't be too skinny, but also can't be stronger than her. WTF?
And can't have a runner's physique, I don't know what her problem is there.
That woman comes across as seriously nuts.

making demands and wondering why she is single.
What can she offer but spitting out a kid and never loosing that weight? (look at her flabby upper arms!)
perfect for bigdave...
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"Can't be stronger than her", WTF.... That sounds like a male saying his choice of female is she shouldn't be built better and shouldn't be stronger than him.

Sorry, but flabby arms like that means sub-5.
