Answer 1: (If this is your first Christmas together) Same thing you got me last year.Dante420 said:Sh!t test: What you getting me for Christmas?
Answer 2: I'm getting you out of those clothes.
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.

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

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.
A white Christmas ......and a towel.Sh!t test: What you getting me for Christmas?
sorry... i guess what i meant was... "TIRED OF GETTING OWNED BY SH!T TESTS?!"Jitterbug said:Why would you be tired of sh!t tests?
Sh!t testing is a woman's way of (mentally) checking a guy out to see if he's the real deal, the equivalent of you checking out her cleavage or legs.
Get the attitude towards a woman's sh!t tests right, and you'll be able to handle them all with ease, instead of memorizing lines.
You should be worried when the woman you're pursuing or in a relationship with is not sh!t testing you at all. That usually means she's lost interest.
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.
"Then get me in a nicer mood."Energy25 said:I'm interested in this one because a girl once said it to me when I suggested we hang out.
Sh!t test: "You're always so mean to me."
"Ya me to, we should arrange a play date for them"I'm in the Mood said:"Then get me in a nicer mood."
This shyt test can be ignored though, you could have said "Yep, so when are you available? I can do Friday night, Saturday night or Sunday afternoon..."
Shyt tests can be ignored, like so and you dissolve her resistance this way.
Anyone have one for: "Sorry, I have a boyfriend."
No? Come on now.
