"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 came across a girl I went to HS with. I had a crush on her during my AFC days and obviously did nothing about. Sadly, it was at Myspace.com that I saw her profile. I really hate that site, but its good for old friends. Whatever.

Her profile wasnt all barbie dolled up with naked toons and Prada bags with stupid Ciara music videos. But rather how shes sarcastic, a *****, loves to have fun, etc. Female alpha.

So I messaged her saying shes ****y etc. She ate it up. We've been talking for a few days (it took her a while to figure out who I was, and even then she didnt remember me- talk about being outgoing in HS on my part). Anways today she said shes going lesbian because shes sick of guys, blah blah blah. This came out of NOWHERE. Although she is bi. I kept the talk BS, and she kept up with me.

I played it off. But I told her if she becomes one of those evil Lifetime girls who hates men I wouldnt talk to her. Next message had nothing to do with her "going" lesbo at all.

I know this is really sad for me to even be questioning this, but I think I can safely say test one passed. I guess the only reason I care is because I used to have a crush on her. I dont anymore, but shes still a cutey, and I want to !close it soon. Its just that when this crap happens online, you cant read body language.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

More message continue, more playful questions. Whatever though, I cant get oneitis over this girl. Although I do feel like its some redemption.

I failed in HS to hook up, her she is 5 years later just sitting in my crosshairs.

:rolleyes:
 

"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.

EDIT: LOL ok there was a post above this one but it got deleted.

Yeah I guess a tiny part of me still wants her. Shes not a pedestal though.

The thing is in high school, we knew of each other, but didn't actually know each other.

I really wish that I had ran across her in public that way I could better judge the situation and establish a comfort zone.
