"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.

when a girl starts talkin about ex's or other guys........what are some good techniques to get the convo in another direction?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

If that happens to me, I usually deflect the comment with a brief acknowledgement, then I gently but firmly steer the conversation in a different direction with a QUESTION. This will make her more willing to make the transition from one topic to another, and it also makes it apparent to her that you're willing to listen, just not willing to listen to her talk about other guys.

Yeah very good advise. Dont let her start talking about other guys, I once did and the girl didnt fukcing stop. I ended up telling her that all this talk could not make me Jealous because I could not be Jealous. Well, after months and months of her trying, it pretty much destroyed our relationship and she did succeed. Make her stop STRAIGHT AWAY, if she doesnt, this is one situation, and I am not a firm beleiver of this policy as many of the guys on this board, but, NEXT!!

It also depends on the ex talk. One chick I was recently with told me a pretty damn funny story about an ex of hers (he turned out to be gay). Also, since I had met her through an online site she told me about a couple disasters she had.
