"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.

Yeh so I got back on the boot camp after a couple months of studying and I decided that i should probably post my results every once in a while so that I'll stick with it.
Just finished the first week, eye contact : no problem. This second week, talking to strangers is hard as s***! I guess im still afraid that ill look like a dork by talking about something that i think is stupid.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Yesterday I was in a down mood and talked to only one girl at the track meet. Heres how the convo went.
Me: Hey what school are you from?
Her: blah blah
Me: Wheres that?
Her: in athens

I should have said something like what are some fun things to do in athens and stuff, but that was pretty bad. Made a lot of good eye contact but the point of this week was to talk to 10 strangers for about 2-10 min. I'm almost out of time but I got plenty of opportunities at school

Alright today was awesome. It started with a 3 hour long standardized graduation test where I did a mix of ****y + funny and some sarcasm and got everyone in a great mood. One of the girls in my "friends" zone who I'd never date started to try to flirt with me. She's giving me the smiles and trying to c+f dance with me. Course, be the cool azn that I am I danced circles around her, but it was all fun. She has hot friends though, lots of hot friends.

Here's where it starts to get interesting. I'm gonna do girl (letter) and talk about my interactions today.

Girl E: finally started cracking her shell. I know what I was doing wrong before. I was just too mean and inconsiderate of her feelings (who knew women had these?) but after some paradign shifts that are so complex that they make calculus seem easier than 1+1. Only results matter!

Girl A: Prom girl, ignored her the whole day.

Girl M: Pushed her in the back and gave her the 'what are you looking at, go turn back around' look. I cant tell if she really hates me or is just playing, but right now I'm playing with fire. Wish me luck!

Girl A2: Did nothing with her today. . . oh well

New Girl L: she check me out on friday, tried to get EC but hasn't succeed. I think I'll use the (i know nothing) card to throw her off guard. maybe tomorrow.

Pimp Out
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Girl E: hung around her for a while before the test. kind of off today.

Girl A: wanted to give her some attention and shes acting like a crazy *****. talking about dead babies psycho killers and crap like that. man im gonna straighten her tomorrow. She's gonna be following my rules before prom.

Girl M: Eye contact and smiles. Got some back, I guess its a IOI. Need to start busting, been holding back for a while now. Shes good though, damn good at messing around.

Girl A2: nothing, she's so cute!! ... trying to keep my cool

New Girl L: left as I was talking to Girl E. Didn't make EC with me. Don't know whats going on but sticking with the plan. This is all just practice for the real thing.

Oh yeah boot camp

Wk. 2 convo with strangers

talked to two sophs today. didn't ask their names... damn! We were hanging some stuff for beta club and I busted on them about how they were hanging stuff. did some goofy/crazy stuff but acted composed. Actually now that I think about it, it kind of sucked. K back to the Bible for me. I know that is much help for those who want to try to help me, but I'll apreciate any advice.
