"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.

Any ideas on how to open (via text) someone you haven't seen in a month?

Met this girl from a social group about a month ago. We pretty much had a mini date that night, but after K closing I didn't get her number b/c my phone was dead. At the time, I really didn't care b/c I had a lot of important stuff going on at the time(ie med school interviews etc.).

Anyways, I managed to get her number from her sister and now want to reopen.

Any ideas?

It's been a month, so my expectations are low. I just want to give it a shot, that's all.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

just call, if it's a month it probably takes some efforts to explain back and forth who you are… which I always find annoying and awkward. A month is a very long time.

Why are you scared to call her?

Haha this one should work.
 

"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.

It does!

I use this one as well if I haven't heard from a chick in a while, and I want to test out the waters. Most of the time they'll give a responce like this:

"HA! No!! You were thinking about me!!! :):):)"

Then just take it from there.
