"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.

So I took this girl I met recently out on a date last friday. I thought it went pretty good, I'm feeling a lot of interest from her. And, she even invited me to her house when I was about to drop her off. I

Anyways, she was hinting about her birthday being wednesday and nothing was doing anything for her. What do you guys think I should do? Thanks for the help.

Paintballguy, u should get her a memorable gift that she will never 4get. How about a hug, kiss, and then a giraffe. Make sure the giraffe has gold teeth like trick daddy.
 

"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.

Well I took her out to see the longest yard. I was planning on going bowling but she had to be up early the next day for her track meet. After the movie was over I was about to drop her off at her place and she said, "Well are you gonna go home or come in and play some mario kart with me."

I didnt wanna push things too fast so I just did some kino. That and her sister came home at some point.

I definately think she has a high IL for me. When I first called her last week, I got her voicemail. She called me back within 5 minutes.
