"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.

There seems to be a problem that I cant grasp. I could be walking down street, in the mall, there will be a girl (always with a gf or bf) walking past me and she'll say weird. She will look at me and say it. I'm clean cut, attractive, i'm wearing clean clothes from banana republic/jcrew. I dont understand it. Do they want me to react, and get in a fight with their bf? If i pinpoint it it's usually because I dont acknowledge that they're walking past me. Simply because I dont see them attractive enough for me to lose my focus. Whenever I see a girl I deem attractive, I look, keep walking and I dont get called weird. I can go to bars, talk to girls, and get laid. If I was truly weird I wouldnt be getting any love from girls.
 

"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.

I would be aloof and pretend like I didn't hear a thing. You know you aren't weird, right? So why does it matter what they think? Maybe these girls find you attractive and think it's weird that you are walking alone and not with a GF? Or maybe you look like someone they knew years ago? Or maybe you have a piece of TP hanging out of your pants or a kick me sign on your back? Could me any number of things.. So long as it's nothing like the TP or kick me sign I wouldn't worry about it.

How many times has it happened? How old are the girls saying it? Are they giggly after like they were doing it specifically just to mess with you and getting off on your reaction?
Damn, yeah mostly these girls are in their early 20's.

You didn't pay attention to THEM, the entitled little princesses thought you should, and made sure you did.....Not the best pickup line I've ever heard from a woman though

"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.
