"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 a couple months ago I began talking to a girl my friend had introduced me to. We continued talking for a while and eventually started dating. The thing that made me so interested in this girl is the fact that she is so smart, but not school smart. She just knows all the games guys play and it really shot my interest level up. She's one of those girls who "doesn't give you what you want" which I have never dealt with.

A couple weeks ago she started telling me that she felt like I was more into the relationship than she was... This really confused/pissed me off. I straight up told her to call me when she knows what she wants but that just led her to saying," I want to be with you." later the next day she apologized and said she felt stupid because of how things panned out. Has anyone dealt with this before?

We are still together and she definitely has more interest in me after that day, but she does one thing that is so simple yet so confusing at the same time. This girl constantly tells me that she hates me... But she isn't serious. She says it means something but I will have to catch on on my own. She usually does it when we are laying down. I know that it's childish, but it really intrigues me for some reason. Any ideas?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Question is: does it even matter? I think not. If you feel like you're losing control, just invest less in the relationship or something. Not my strong side.

You could be right. I will invest less. One thing I'm thinking is that maybe she is scared due to the fact that her little games don't work as well as she would like on me.
