"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.

hi there this girl at )work i say hb7(half white half chinese) kinda posh and that well any way the main things she quite weird ie the first time i ever saw her she knew my name and when she sees me she will say "you allright zen? yeah yeah yeah" and nod like a crazy person she scares me a bit.
any way im a flirt so i talk to her in the lift not obvious.

now the last time i saw her(about 3 weeks ago) we are in the lift im just small talking and not really listening but i hear her say shes a temp and next weeks her last week, i know im on holiday the next week but say nothing any way she ask me "so where do you live" straight after. i tell her then ask where she lives not far from work she gives a big smile blushes then says
"i will talk to you next week"

now yesterday she comes in (shes a regular temp) and come into our room when im not there. but tells my collegue shes been back all week and ask have i left

now today about 4.30 today im standing by the lift day dreaming about home time when i hear "hey zen how are you?" i look up she was walking past but stops comes towards me and asked "hey zen any plans for the weekend ,wat you doing?
i really cant be bothered to go into detail but im going to the beach with friends 2mor so i say nothing special to her just a quiet 1 i ask wat about you she says
"yeah me too i doing nothing at all im so bored." she then stares at me for a few seconds as if she wants me to say something. then she says have a nice weekend and walks off.


now was she basically putting it on the plate? and feels i rejected her for a nothing weekend or was she tryna be nice, as i think it was so random the way she just asked that question and left.

another thing after this i walked past her desk in her eyeline and she didnt even look at me she kind of blushed and had a pissed off face im quite confused by the situation.

thanks
 

"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.

My gut feeling is she's attracted to you and can't come right out and say it. Instead she's dropping subtle hints like what are you up to and I'm bored. She wanted you to ask her out. Now she feels rejected.

The thing about her nodding like crazy make sense. It's an approval seeking behavior. I did a LOT of that in my super AFC days LOL.

Oh man, heck yeah shes attracted to you. I mean honestly when someone ask how you doing, that means they care enough to even ask you that. And her saying shes bored, she wants a MAN of adventure!!! Shes being nice to you. GO GO GO ask her out. Adventure thats who you are, now go and show her!

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

saw the girl today while waiting for the lift i was going up she sees me standing there(with loads of people going to lunch) through the doors and walks up and presses down but doesnt look at me and looks pissed off then turn and pretends she just sees me and says "oh hi" and when i say hi back she walks over and we both say how was your weekend at the same time.

she tells me hers was boring and but she went out saturday night (i didnt ask where) then she asked how was mine i told her about the beach she was like
" what when on saturday? was it planned what a mission"

my up lift comes and opens and two other girls i flirt with are inside they both smile and 1 comes out ,i switch off for a few seconds as i walk towards the lift and the girl follows me right to the door, i then realise shes still talking and she ask me where i went and how long it took i come out with "ermm i cant remeber you know" i seriously couldnt.

she realises that the lifts going up when i say "i will talk to you later"
and says "yeah i wont hold you up" or something and then as if she realises that im miles away she laughs, lightly but firmly touches my arm enough that i turn round and shes smiling.

then the other girl in the lift looks at me like "whos she" and then straight after ask "where did you go?"

i hope i see that other girl 2mor alone as today imo she showed she is definetly interested

Sometimes the best line is to cut through the bullsh1t and lay the truth down.

You should have just said that your plans over the weekend is to take her out.

That's it, it ain't brain surgery.
