"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Couchsurfing is where people who are traveling to a foreign city arrange to sleep on people's couches in lieu of paying for a hotel.

Has anyone ever tried this before? Since I live in an exotic locale (saigon) and I have alot of spare room it seemed like a good idea. Maybe some single backpacker chicks will drop by...?
 

"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.

Go to couchsurfing.com I am a member there, although I've never hosted or surfed because of my current situation. People have lots of success with it, meeting people and such. You posted this in the wrong section btw.

Did I? sorry about that. Right now I'm travelling and don't have time to make my profile interesting. Obviously this isn't primarily a dating service but the opportunity for a ONS seems huge.
