How I owned conversations with my date and retain her:

Maintain frame. She will push and pull, threatening all the while. Hold firm. Stay strong.

Speak so little you're speaking in words instead of sentences. The more you reveal, the more common you appear. Always say less than necessary (48LawsofPower)

Make her reveal herself first. Whoever reveals their hand first is at a significant disadvantage.

Flip the script. Call her out on how she hurt you. Put her on the defensive.

Speak I'm vague terminology. When the girl said what I was looking for, I used words like "consistent", "trustworthy", "fun", and "going with the flow". She interpreted it positively this way. I refrained from saying I wanted a fuckbuddy or ltr. I never used those words.

Maintain silence. Silence is a void. Let her fill it with her insecurities. Have her trip up, not you.

Monotone voice. Low pitch. Speak slowly, clearly, and deliberately.

Text them first asking if they are available. This will give them fair warning for them to answer the phone and force them to commit when they text yes.

Women connect with emotions, men connect with facts. When you communicate, express how it made you feel. Women connect with that

Less than 10-15 minutes. Keep it short, simple, and straightforward.
