"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 am an afc. Ill admit it it. I was dealing with a chick we flirted,showed signs of interest, we agreed to go on a date.Next day she texts me saying she was going to be tired because she works all day. I was fine no problem. So I hit her up couple days later making sure everything is fine and she said dont be nervous, everything is good.Fast forward two weeks later, I see on facebook that she actually went on a date with someone(online dating,wtf?), showing pictures of flowers the dude gave her and,posting "had a great time with a special someone" and ill admit I was effin hurt. So I raged on her,sent her texts saying **** like she didnt take me seriously.Later on the day she says sorry but im getting uncomfortable because I showed my anger.So I was like whatever and said I hope we can still be friends and I think after I said that, she went crazy saying maybe we can be friends but right now I need you to back off because youre making me umcomfortable and I dont appreciate it.

Im tired being a wreck and a chump around girls..and,im trying hard to not develop oneitis for this chick. I need motivation. What can I do?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Canada, eh?
That is completely "normal" for a guy who starts out on here. You usually start with anger then go into depression, and finally ease in into acceptance. Once you have a few of such experiences you will get hardened and cease to care about all this silly nonsense. It's not worth it, nor is it mentally healthy to be preoccupied with this. Just let it go, take a break if you need it, do yourself and most importantly be carefree/lighthearted. P.S. read about the common bullish!t women say and eject when they try to pull a stunt on you. "I am gonna be tired" was as a reliable disinterest sign as it could ever be. The proper thing would be to next her or to go ghost on her.....hinting that you had other options.

What can I do?
Learn first to drop women without remorse, regret or emotion. You sould have dropped this one when she flaked on your date. Also don't fall in love with them so fast. You don't trust a girl until you've been on 8-12 dates. During those first dates you don't believe anything she says. You need to make sure they do all the right things. If they show you red flags you walk. End of story.

Never take women personally and definitely don't blow up on them when they pull their predictable games. They're just wasting your time.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
