Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
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.
Well, I gotta do something with her before that. I can't just be like "Hey lets go to a motel and have some fun"KontrollerX said:Would a motel work?
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 don't invite yourself over to a chick's house without her inviting you. That could lead to her inviting herself whenever she likes to your place without telling you when you got the other girl there.....:nervous:ChrizZ said:b) I ask her to hang out and watch a movie at her house (that's a classic)
cuz I live in a host family with 5 korean computer geek dudes (lol) and the walls here are really thin. So I don't want the host parents to hear screams like:DJDamage said:You don't invite yourself over to a chick's house without her inviting you.

Why can't you invite her to your place again???

"Ohh Yeahh, right there baby!!!" or "Oh my GOD it's so BIG!!!!"
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.
In the a$$, I guess?Don't know where to bang this chick

I don't have my license yet.Luscious said:Go out somewhere with her, but make sure you drive.
You drop her off at the end of the night and she should invite you in for coffee or some crappy excuse like that. If she doesn't look like she's going to offer, say you need to hang a leak in her bathroom real quick. As soon as you're in her house, it's on.
