"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, former total AFC here now incredibly happy and confident and in a relationship. Here's my problem....I like this girl too much.

I know this generally isn't the grounds covered on here, but how deep in a relationship is it considered normal to bust out such a dangerous word? I actually think I do love this girl, she's perfect for me (not perfect in general, at all, and I love it :p)


Any advice is also appreciated, but she doesn't play games or anything so I don't wanna do ******* stuff to her.
 

"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.

General advise I've seen given here. Get her to say it first. Once said, use very sparingly.

That was my plan (Yeah I totally camped this thread). Just seeing if anyone else had some wisdom.
