"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 found this interesting:

http://www.slate.com/articles/life/..._a_celebrity_cad_should_i_sleep_with_him.html

I met a celebrity through my volunteer work, and we have flirted ever since we met. I'm young, unattached, and enjoy the occasional one night stand. This man has made it clear he wants to wine and dine me and then take me back to his place, and I'd take him up on the offer—I’m wildly attracted to his intensity and his passion for this cause—except for his tumultuous past. You can't believe everything you read, but he has a pretty dodgy reputation, and his outbursts have sent him to jail before. He has always been kind to me and the people around me, but it's also difficult to ignore how poorly he's treated women in the past. Would I be a bad person if I threw caution to the wind and had a brief fling with this person? I'm not interested in his money, his fame, or having a future with him.
It seems that this chick's hamster inclinations are to sleep with this double alpha male (i.e., both a celebrity AND a bad boy), but her responsible side is against it. This sounds like the typical woman's thought process - emotions to do the thing that makes her gina tingle, but with the thought in the back of her mind that it is against the anti-slut meme that the matriarchy has (or at least had at an earlier time in history) as well as against her long term interests.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

She already is 99 percent sure she's gonna F him. She posted the question because she wanted some "You go girl" "Hi-Five" of sorts to get her to 100 percent and to receive absolution for her "sin" ahead of time so she doesn't feel slutty. In short, she wanted "permission" and an "It's ok; do it" pat on the back.

The "Dear A b by" lady gave the token "Use a condom" advice.

But she's definitely gonna raw dog this guy. Mike32ct will bet his last dollar on that.
