Ive kind of made an unspoken rule for myself, in regards to what warrants a response from me to girls when they say something, text something, im something...
Ive broken thier actions into 2 things...
"Me" Questions/comments
and
"You" Questions/comments
Whered i get the names?
This is a little complicated, first put yourself in thier shoes and ask yourself "if i where that girl, why did i just ask this question or make that comment?"
If the answer for her own needs (attention, manipulation, nothing better to do, etc) ie "about "me" (remeber your thinking as if your her) then its a "Me" Question or comment.
If the answer is for her to mutually benifit both of you, or her interest in you (learn more about you, find out what you like, find out what your doing to make plans with you, etc) then its a "You" questions cause its all about you, it lets you take the stage, control the convo and game them.
************************************
So, if a girl is only contacting me for herself (a "Me" question) then it does not warrant a response from me....some examples;
what are you doing?
your silly/random/goofy/funny... (ie: calling you names to get attention, not to banter)
what are you doin next weekend? (notice its vague)
are you there?
call me (otherwise not preplanned or agreed to, out of the blue)
Should i do x or y?
etc
However, if the girl is contacting me to get more info about me, get to know me better, spend real time with me, etc...then it warrants a response (notice not immediate response, and normal rules apply here...you dont have to give a iteinerary when asked a question or tell them your life story) because the question comment is all about "You" it allows you to go into DHV stories or respond in a genuine way or go cocky funny or go into a more sexual frame etc.
What are you doing tonight? (notice the specific time frame...)
How are you/are you ok/how life treating you/etc
or any example of calling you by a positive pet name or bantering with you... theres a difference between them saying your random/wierd etc and using a pet name lover/hottie/babe/etc.
*********************************************
Can you give me a contrasted example?
Sure, If i have a girl ask me what im upto tonight i may say something like "Well i have tentative plans, but if you have something better to do, i may consider dropping them." or "tell me what you have in mind, and if its more exciting then what im doing ill let you know" or "your comming over to watch a movie../im comming over to hang out.../we are going to x place" (dependant on your style and where your at with her in terms of the social connection.
If a girl asks what im doing this weekend, if i respond at all...its later in the week (last min), and its either along the lines of "i have plans ill ttyl" or if you dont have anything to do, or your plans are tentative, "I have tentative plans, give me a call and let me know what your doing and when, then ill consider it." (this gives her a hoop to jump through, if she calls reward her by actually considering and possibly doing/going along with the plans)
basically it all boils down to sifting the shit out of the positive convo, and only spending your time on worthy questions/comments.
