"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.
And you thought your parents were nuts...

"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.

I thought i read something about mental retardation in the kids if you were to have them with your daughter or any immediate relatives because the genetics were too similar...true or false?

heard about this on the radio earlier today
that is a face only a mother could love.
I feel horrible for anyone that is involved including the wife.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

That wife must've been some sort of massive simpleton to not realise what was going on. He father 7 of his own grandkids, 3 of whom lived with him and his wife - where did she think they came from? They wern't hers. "Oh yeah, they're !our daughters! kids, no you can't speak to her, she's. . . away"comic_relief said:
And where did she think he was going everynight, only to hear muffled noise coming from the cellar, and from behind the door he'd cunningly hidden behind the bookcase, only to return clutching a baby. And don't even get me started on the delivery of the chilldren, and the food he must have had to keep taking in there.
And blow me down, who the hell can't overpower a 70/80 year old man. Even a woman stupid enough to be locked in her own cellar could've given him a kick to the twig and giggleberries, if only for the sake of her children.
Peoples desire to be the victim blows me away sometimes.

They say that she looks 20 years older than she is now, with white hair and wrinkles.
That is just so sad. And the poor teenagers who were born there and lived their whole life there! I can't even imagine.
