"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 guess I know what this means but I just don't want to accept it :p

So here goes. I tried making a move on this girl. We were in a room along, just playing a game, nothing sexual. At the end I decided that now would be the time for a kiss so I told her to 'come here' . She kept asking why while giggling/smiling a lot. I kept moving towards her while she was doing that, when i got within a foot of her she turned around and left saying "ok i'm going now" while giggling quite a bit.

This was at work btw.

I've never had that happen, every other time it was either a complete success of complete rejection, but this I dont know what to make of.

My brain isn't being cooperative at seeing the objective truth here, so I'd like you guys to give me your opinions. What do you think happened?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Some girls are just different. What works with one many not necessary work with the other. You probably frightened her when you asked her to "come here..." and walking towards her like she is a prey. At times predator/prey tactics just don't work well...

Are you kidding? What if she got caught and got fired?

She's quitting. Her last day is in a few days. I'm not THAT irresponsible :p
Edit: And she handed in her resignation long before I ever thought of doing anything.
