"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."

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.

I was just reading a guide to getting laid in different countries around the world. Somehow, halfway through the article "getting laid" gets twisted into "partying" i.e. spending time waiting in lines out in the cold at 2am and paying to go into crowded rooms where they sell expensive drinks.

It just seems like a bait and switch to me. The same is often true with online dating. The ads show pictures of happy couples pulling each others clothes off. The reality is people paying to swipe through photos of people they'll never meet.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

The swipe apps are free, so I'm not sure I understand the analogy. Also, it's pretty easy to get matches/meet girls through swipe apps...how is that bait and switch?
