She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
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.
u get her number then u tell her to join u at x at y time and bring z if necessary.Originally posted by Maeisgood
How do you officially "ask out" a girl without saying something so blunt as "will you go out with me," or something to the effect of that?
and then she says yes, and then u say----- wtf do u say then?Originally posted by TinyFzzyKiwi
what's wrong with the "will you go out with me?" isn't straightforward usually better?
ok, never looked at it that way, and it clears up my questionOriginally posted by huge_guy_pimpin

GREAT now lets go on a date ? lol
its pretty damn obvious u are asking her out when u ask her to join u alone at so n so.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
go to a party? - dont spend whole time with herOriginally posted by wcknightjr
My whole dilemma is what to do AFTER you've "hung out" a couple times and you kissed her once. What then? I'm tryin to figure out what to do for the third date without seeming all clingy...
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.

Seeing as this is my first post, I dont exactly have any credibility to this post. But dude that was the weakest sh!t Ive ever seen!Originally posted by skinnydart
I just called one up a couple hours ago and said...
"hey, this is skinnydart, what's up... hey are you free this friday?"
"Uh, yeah, I don't have to work this friday"
"I was thinking we could go to that play?"
"Yeah, that would be cool, so what time would you pick me up?"
'Well, it starts at 7:30, but I was thinking we'd go out and get some dinner before, so say I pick you up at your dorm at 5:00?"
It's not that hard, just let it flow naturally.
