"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.

Why do women prefer texting to calling? I can't understand.

They're texting all the time, but don't answer or respond to a call with a call back. Even if they made out with you or you've known them for some time and are still seeing them. Any insights? How should you handle it? Play their text games? Keep trying to reach them by calling seems needy I think.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Text them back, but don't rely solely on that. I've lost a couple of good girls that I liked a lot because I didn't ever call them. If you just text, eventually they seem to just stop responding even if they were the ones who initially texted you.

I met a girl back in the spring who by the end of the night had grabbed my phone away from me to put her number in it. She sent me a good night text and a good morning text the next day. All of our conversations were text. Eventually, she just stopped responding.

Do what works for you. It's only a game if you decide to play with them. Besides, how is it needy if you're returning their text? Just don't make a nuisance of yourself my keep calling if they don't answer.

texting is less threatning. you dont have to deal with akward silences, things to talk about, and you can respond when ever you want. basically a dream come true for girls. its not that bad really, i also think its easier and you dont have to deal with the normal boring conversations.

i text all the girls i talk to, its straight to the point and simple. I save all the talking for when i see them in person. Plus i'm not a big talker on the phone...its difficult to flirt on the phone since they can't see you. there's no kino, c/f doesnt come out right, no body language. Just not a fan of it. Just remember when you do text, dont respond immediately, and never be the last one to text. always end on her text.

I don't have texting on my phone for this exact reason,! I feel if you got something to say, call my ass up, or else it ain't all that important and it can wait till you got time to call me. I tell girls all the time(yold this chick today), "naw baby, don't text me, don't be chicken call me- up if ya wanna get to know me!"
