"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.

Recently my girlfriend brokeup with me because of the distance... we live 1600km away from eachother and only see eachother once every 2 months... its for the best because since then i have released the beast LOL. anyways the agreement was that when she visits my town (3 times a year) we would be together for the time she is here. BUT there is this other chick that im seeing now, but we are not exclusive, and dont want them to know about eachother. i see this other chick twice a week or so, and when my ex comes, i see her every day... when im with them they usually stay the night, but dont know about eachother. how do i play it so that they dont find out about eachother, and not suspect anything?? I know its a stupid question, not knowing the situation and all, but how do i make myself not available and available at the same time??
 

"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.

I don't know the answer to that one other than just be careful!
I'm going through a similar situation. I am currently dating 4 women and although I don't have a commitment to any of them, I'm sure that if any of them found-out i was fukin another lady, then I'd start losing chick.

Depends on the size of the town, and whether or not your friends know about the situation. If it's a larger city, and your friends either don't know or don't care, then you're safe enough just telling the girl you're with currently that something came up - family issues, a trip, work related problems - and aren't going to be as availiable for a few days. If it's a smaller town, and you think that going out with the long-distance girl might get back to your current girl, perhaps you should go ahead and really go on a 'trip'... tell the LD girl that you want to do something different with her, take her to the nearest touristy spot for the weekend.

If you don't have committments to either, just don't get yourself locked into a presumption that you will be available on a particular day.

You are ethically fine unless someone asks you why you can't do X on a particular day and you lie.
 

"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.
