"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.

Women don't like being "approached", they want it to be a very natural and smooth process where they feel like it happened with no effort but most of the time that's very difficult. There is a super cute girl who actually went to my high school that works as a teacher but waitress part time at a local pub. How in God's green earth am I gonna build enough rapport with her to ask her out??

When I go out to bars and clubs, every cute girl is with multiple friends

how do you guys navigate through all these extremely annoying obstacles???
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Bro you don't need to build much rapport to ask for a date. If you're as good looking as you claim, spark up a convo, be lighthearted, make her laugh then drop "we should go for a drink, when are you free".

It's like you're making this harder than it needs to be, stop living in your head or you will have a mental breakdown soon.

only an anti-social woman truly dislikes being approached though, the rest only like it when guys they like approach them
