A hottie on Tinder messaged me yesterday, I got her number, I'm going to text her tomorrow to set up a date, there is a pub crawl on Friday that has a trolley that goes to ten different bars for $35 and you get a free drink at every bar. I went last year with a girl I was seeing and had a blast. Would inviting the girl be too much for a first date or would it be cool?
"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.
First date pub crawl good or bad idea?
