"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.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

My Aunt had a stroke after taking Pfizer vaccine. She's recovered, and is looking forward to her second booster dose. I've opened up an online lottery account and decided to place some bets with various odds to massage into my mind that the odds of getting a side-effects is the same as winning something tomorrow, as I chose the exact same odds more or less....and to still encourage myself to take the vaccine. I even called the lottery alias after the name of a vaccine to illustrate the point. Hopefully after I see I don't win anything tomorrow I'll feel better about taking the vaccine.

Being that I was asymptomatic and the only person in my household that came down with symptoms was my GF. No reason for me to get the shot ever. Why inject myself with a vaccine that is untested and a virus I'm pretty much immune too.
 

"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.

@RickTheToad I think you need to review the Forum Rules and then re-evaluate who needs to chill.

Lately I'm seeing a lot of what I consider to be disrespectful and insulting posts. It needs to stop, and I think you can do better.
I'm well aware of the rules. Both of you are going back and forth and derailing the topic at hand. Both chill and stick to the topic at hand or the topic will be locked. It's that simple.

Here's what has a better chance of killing me than COVID

Dog-shiat American food and drink
Lack of exercise
Being shot by a mass murderer/mass shooting
Enslaving myself to a mountain of meaningless material possessions, via a meaningless corporate job.
FTFY
