"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.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
I mean even in religions such as Judaism and Islam some more 'modern' 1s partake in more sinful acts etc but obey others. pick and choose.
although i dont know how extreme a JW is.. like is there no modern version?
If anyone has any stories please do tell.

I think the hardest part would be not making fun of her religion. You should probably just never talk about it, act like you don't notice. That's how to treat any glaring flaw in a woman.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Either he was not a JW or you are remembering wrongly. It's one very clearly stated belief of JW that most people will be destroyed in Gods war (Armageddon) and the vast majority of survivors will live forever on earth, Hope of a heavenly salvation isn't something a devout JW would ever claim or promise.Wolf said:
Well maybe, but in my experience JW are very non-confrontational.Wolf said:
To the OP:
There are people who claim to be JW for a variety of reasons who don't really know what they are talking about. For instance sometimes a person had a mother or who was associated with the organization or something and maybe even went to a few services herself, but never really got serious about it. These you will have a shot with.
The real hard core JW will be active Bible preachers who attend services 2-3 times a week plus they will go out and cold call trying to discuss Bible topics with people in their area a few times a month. These are sweet traditional feminine girls who I have no doubt will make someone a nice wife someday, but you're not likely to get them to put out and if you did you would succeed in potentially causing significant emotional damage to them due to the repercussions they would experience.
They are the modern version. Any JW who "partakes" is excommunicated swiftly and surely and is thus by definition no longer a JW.pete101 said:

Don't: mention Jesus.
