Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

When she doesn't respond back.

Okay so I have this friend of mine who is a girl that I wanted to hang out with last weekend.
Around tuesday I emailed her (via facebook) and told her how we should hang out some time this weekend at this new place I discovered. She responded back saying it would be cool and that she might be able to come except that she was planning on hanging out with this other girlfriend of her's on the weekend as well.
Well of course I joked back saying, "What, do you plan on hanging out with her the entire weekend? ;P" (that was around wed.). Well she never responded back though when I look at her profile page she's clearly been online and has posted some stuff on her wall after that message I sent her.

Now I was a bit upset but didn't let if faze me at all cause I just set up something with someone else. But my question is what should I do here? I'm stuck between not saying anything about it to saying something. Like "Hey for future reference it'd be much appreciated if you could get back to me sooner when I try and make plans."
What do you guys think? More importantly what would you guys do?
She's someone I'd like to just have around as a friend, and she's a nice person, though this was the first time she's ever done anything like that.
 

"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.

Whatever you do, DON'T SAY THIS. I can guarantee you she will think you are a psycho (at least, considering all the details you've given us) and won't talk to you anymore. I'd give it at least a week, message her again something playful and see how she reacts. In my honest opinion she isn't interested or else she would have responded.

exactly, stop trying to get her to "hang out"...its like your trying to sneak her onto a date with out her realising...

she has prob had the meet up with her Girlfreind arranged for a while, who is more important... as you are new to her life (and your not potential dates - see your last line)

you need to offer her something exciting she dont alreay have as a new male freind - it may be easier to be on group outlings with her at the start to build up your rapport...one-to-one "freind dates" are a little odd in some ways
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
