"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.

I bought this movie the other day, and I'd be a criminal if I didn't reccomend it to all you guys who love patterns and conversational pieces to use in jams. The main character Ethan Hawke has a romantic yet comedic personality that works well in this day and age. He uses tons of routines that you can implement in your game and topics and ideas. Trust me when I say this is a good movie. Even the girl has routines and insight you can use
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I own and love both sunrise and sunset, but to say that these people are using routines is kinda silly to me. I have had a few conversational dates just walking around a city with a girl, and I didn't have to rely on any "routines". Simple listening and responding, thats it, no routine nessecary.

Yeah definetly no routines, he just talked and was generally interested in the conversation. I own both movies and definetly recomend both. (But you do have to apreciate non-action movies.)

when i say routines, I don't mean patterns, i mean ROUTINES...something interesting you say that guides them in the right direction... Just giving people an idea on how to guide women towards the kind of conversation that gets you somewhere other than friendzone.I bought Before Sunrise...I've seen Before Sunset, but haven't managed the funds to buy it
 

"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.

This film was wicked, i watched it with my gf and she fell in love with it and i could see her getting tranced by the actions of the characters. However, i thought some of the stuff he pulled was a little too late and a little too stupid. I didnt actually realise there was a Before Sunset. Im gonna buy the pair of them.
