"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 currently have a gf but things are not going well so im sarging for back ups. I asked a girl to grab a bite of food before she works but she suggested to go to the beach at night. Am i over analyzing or is she showing sign of interest? I have no intention other than just friends at this point for personal reasons.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

It looks like she is interested.


What exactly are you looking for? You seem to be confused. If you're looking for a back up then you intend to be more then friends. Decide if you should stay with your GF or not. You don't have to be cheating or sneaking around then.

Mixed bag.

She rejected your one on one offer but with her counter offer who knows if she will even show up or bring friends to make it seem more casual.

I usually avoid counteroffers because it places the ball in her court. I would have just said that I would be busy that night but still get her number so I can call her another night where the ball once again will be in my court.
