"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 know we have some guys who watch WWE here, so I thought I would post this. I thought the final segment with the Enzo and Cass breakup on Raw last Monday was one of the better scenes they've had on there for awhile - even if it was predictable.

Cass showed he could actually cut a decent promo, and Enzo actually worked up enough emotion to roll a tear. I couldn't help but think he was crying because he knew his career was over.

The split feels premature though. Raw could use the extra tag team, and the single scene is already crowded.
 

"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.

I agree it's a waste of a popular tag team. Rumor is Vince McMahon has a hard on for Big Cass so they want to push him as a singles star. He might be a decent wrestler some day but this could have waited a few years. Enzo's probably just screwed.
