"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.

1 song to pump you up. What would it be?

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Megalomaniac by KMFDM really brings out the inner assh*le in me. Do not dare to listen to it with pathetic laptop speakers or meek iPod earbuds.

I've noticed that sh*t like Linkin Park, Fort Minor, and most rock are the musical choice of frustrated beta schlubs. I should know; I used to be one, and that music had a certain appeal. Now it reeks of sexual frustration and unwarranted aggression caused by lack of direction and purpose in life. And hip-hop (mostly, with few exceptions) reeks of ignorant self-destructive materialism that makes me despise and yet pity those who listen to it.

Or maybe I'm just an assh*le. Whatever.

Lol..honestly I find rap being too goofy/displayin you have a chip on your shoulder but there are occasional songs that catch my eye (or ear whatever.) because of its lyrics. Such as the first one, the chorus reminds me of the shvt I've been through and how it would go to waste if I give up now.
 

"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.

I personally find it extremley stupid and out of place when people say things like "This band is for beta's. Sports are for alphas." etc. Gross generalizations are for the beta minded, if anything.

Not sure who Fort Minor is(I'd prob know some songs) but I actually like Linkin Park a lot, the older stuff mainly. If you were looking for a misplaced aggression song, look no further than Limp Bizkit "Break Stuff."

Check this track out, you might like it. Starts kicking in at about 1:00 onwards:

Young Jeezy ft. Kanye West - Put On vs DJ Shadow ft. Q-Tip & Lateef - Enuff
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLpZtc8Nco8

Put On sounds completely different

Well, I absolutely love the original song, so it was more of a tease for me lol. And I don't like the over-DJed type sound so much. I know that is the point of that game, but that's not something I would just listen to.

Pretty much anything by Queen puts me in the mood to knock down doors and go pick up chicks.

Kinda ironic really.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
