So there's a girl in my Science class who's name is Lauren. We'll talk sometimes, but as of now she really doesn't seem all that attracted. Basically, I talked to her about pianos with a few of my friends and then she sort of exited the set after we were done talking. Then later we talked alone and I was like "Are you going to the game on Friday?" blah blah, eventually she says "No, it's kind of boring" and then I'm like "Well I'll be there" the bell rings and she sort of laughs.
"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.
Advancing things with this girl.
