I'm not big on the rules either. My personality is such that when there are supposed rules, I get caught up in following them, to the point it saps all the joy out of it. To think there is some magic bullet is not only silly, it can also lead to unnecessary disappointment. "If I did X, Y, and Z, why aren't I in a relationship? I must have done something wrong. I'm so pathetic."
I think the best advice I've heard so far is to talk to her like she's your friend (and hopefully she WILL be your friend on some level); keep grand declarations of feelings in check. We might love the movies, but it doesn't mean we can live life like we're in one!
BTW, these might seem like rules but they're more like guidelines
