"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.

I dont know how to word it out, but I've noticed that out of all the girls I talk to at school, there are those girls who are just plain innocent or just plain socially retarded lol. I know that they are not playing it safe because I know that these girls are inexperienced. They are not very receptive to my flirty and sometimes sexual jokes where normal girls would laugh about and go with. It is kind off a turn off to me. What do you guys think? Have you met any girls like these? are they even worth the pick up?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I'm at college and while I don't have that much experience (all guys high school for 4 years), the past 2 months I have been experimenting with people. I'm really popular here and I can form great conversations with them.

However, I have definitely noticed that girls at my college are boring and don't try to carry conversations. I guess you can call them afc girls, and it's really annoying because I waste energy and time on them and they are dull.

The best way I found to meeting girls is by meeting girls in my social circle. When I talk to a girl in class and we don't have anything in common at the start, they don't respond well. However, if a girl has a mutual friend with me who introduces both of us, it shows I am a popular person and she wants to know who I am. If a guy has no friends then he is not going to be viewed positively.

What a waste of a beautiful face... Thanks, my question is answered. And the mutual friend thing is really effective for me right now. I used to not talk with these girls who were my friend's friends because I was cynical and partly antisocial, but now I did not even have to be introduced to talk to them. However, they are cynical about me probably because they still view me as an AFC. One girl on that group is pretty attractive, but shes just an AFC herself. The rest are fine, but they are cynical.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

The biggest thing is a first impression from my experience.
People at college think I am a fun and crazy, extroverted, and confident guy.
However, the people at my high school thought of me as the complete opposite. They thought I was boring. It doesn't matter if I made any adjustment to my personality (like I did the junior year of my high school), because they still thought of me as a boring guy (or a try-hard).

I took a public speaking course which helped me talk to people with emotion, even if I have nothing in common with people they all still like me at college.

I try to avoid AFC girls because they don't know how to form conversations and it's just a waste of time, and I think you should do the same. If they are not motivated enough to talk to a fun guy like me, then **** it I'd rather talk to more fun girls instead.

I think I feel the same way, cococrispy. I like to think that my high school classmates right now think of me more of a confident guy, but i know that in their head, im just a background person. They do go with my new vibe, but the first impression has stayed with them. Hopefully, I take a similar path to college. I can hardly wait.

Well, my advice to you would be to leave the good girls alone and stick to the sluts who welcome your "sexual jokes". Leave the good girls for the good guys who have respect.

WHERE is this forum heading?!!!.......
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
