"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 am a casual smoker. I smoke at parties and socially. Last night I was DJ'ing my old high school's dance with a couple of other DJ's I work with. Well one of them is a chain smoker and really needed a cigarette so we rode across the street to get some food and have a smoke break. I got back and saw lots of girls I know and went to talk to them and dance a bit. My ex one of the girls I talked to and who still likes me was really stand offish. I said NEXT and moved on.

Well the next girl I talked to ran up hugged and kissed me and asked why I smelled like Smoke. I told her my friend had been smoking around me. First time a girls ever said something about cigarette smoke on me.

I just received a message from my ex/that first girl asking why I smelled like smoke and being told thats the reason she didn't hug or dance with me last night.

Just some interesting experiences on the "does smoking have a negative effect on gaming girls" issue

Everywhere you want to be.... I'm like a Visa card
Well, it can't possibly give you a POSITIVE effect on your game. Unless you're chasing the kind of skanks that still think smoking is cool. >_>

Hint: The smell of smoke isn't attractive, and no one wants that smoky flavor in their kisses either. Just a bit of advice.

I'm not trying to condone smoking here though I think people have a right to choose. I've worked with a local, state, and national organizations to work on banning smoking in public buildings. I have to admit though smoking can create a bond between two people. Gives you something in common. I've met many new friends through conversations that started about smoking.

I have had smoking increase attraction before but through special circumstances. Such as after having sex then smoking with the girl.... I know its cliche but I even had a girl that never smoked before smoke once after sex. I HATE the smell of cigarette smoke and stick to original things like Clove cigarettes which taste and smell nothing like your traditional cigarette (I have found these spark curiosity and conversation with girls and guys) Also the Al Capone cigarillos which are dipped in Cognac. As for the traditional cigs I smoke Robust camels when im drinking and these have a nice smoke as well.

Marlboro, Kool, Newports etc. have a very smoky smell and It was one of these that I had bummed off my friend that night and had the negative effects.

Girls only don't like smoke if they don't smoke themselves. Smokers don't care that you smell like smoke, because they do too.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

It helps sometimes and it hurts sometimes, I've had both situations occur. Don't worry too much about it, just do what you like, if other people don't like it then well too bad for them.
