"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.

So I met this new girl at school and I ended up getting her number after chatting a bit on myspace and talking with texts for a good while. Now though, I can't help but feel that she's getting disinterested, as before it was a near constant stream of texting and now there's barely any, and when I do say something that would usually be funny, I get a unenthusiastic usually one word reply in return.

I think where I made my mistake was when I started texting too long, even when there wasn't really anything important to say. Should I just try to limit virtual communications as much as possible and instead work my game in real life?
 

"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.

I know I hate texting, seeming word only get out a tiny percentage of the message where saying. I limit them and cut back, and talk to her more in real life.

Spot on.

Don't overdo anything. Keep them waiting. Calls are better in general.

Call the girl, get in her ear and her head with your voice. Don't blow up her phone with texts, not cool. How do you feel when some chick constantly texts you? You get disinterested because it's not a challenge for her attention.
Call her if she's interested- if you get a voicemail just leave a message saying "hey ____ it's ____, call me." That's it- no small talk or weak ****, just a command.
 

"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.

txting......... just don't do it ae, many of my mates, they pua's aswell will say HELL NO im not gonna stop txting, and send there plans worth in the first week.

I don't do it myself at all really and i find they respect me more for it, just get that face time, face times is probably the best way you will ever pick up chicks in HS just do it as much as possible

Although do text a little, especially if you have something going on or they will find it is a bad sign, just get the right balance

Balance

Pretty much what being a dj is all about

I've heard this many times and believe it's ture: Many people are using these different forms of communication through text, internet, etc. that they forget how to talk to people in person. Sure it may be easier to express what you say through writing and scriptures, but actually speaking to someone is better for the most part.
