"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.

While helping to move a table, (notice here that I am visibly being helpful, taking charge of the task at hand) i say smiling to the target as we pass, "are you just gonna stand there, or are you gonna help?"

she smiles back

A few minutes later I see her watching the music band. I walk up beside her and said. "I thought you were going to help." She smiles again and we both laugh. I then turn to the band, and pretend I'm more interested in them. She initiates conversation. I continue to converse with her, and then go paying more attention to the music. She positions herself to be more in my view.

She asks me what I do. I say I write dating advice books :D She asks if one of the techniques in my book is to tell women that you write dating advice books. I say "no, but it does work. I've got your attention." She blushes.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzz got a live one. Time to start realing her in.

Now I give her the routine about how, "most women arent very interesting to me anymore. but there's something about you that has caught my attention, at least a little bit. You're doing pretty good so far, but i'm not sold yet" (here I established that she must prove herself to me)

SHe continues to attempt qualify herself. I accept and confirm most of the qualifications, but occasional demonstrate casual disapproval, just to make sure she doesnt get to comfortable. At this point she is still trying to act like she could take it or leave it.

At this point I disingage, and go mingle with other people. Every now and then we cross paths, and a chat for a minute before wandering again. Now she feels a little more the need to secure my attention.

Next, I find another cute girl to dance with for a minute. I make sure it is at a time that girl #1 will see.

What happens now, you guessed it. Girl # 1 comes onto the dance floor and acerts herself by me, trying to display to g #2 that she has some priority over me. I dance with both of them for a minute before throwing g #1 a little bone, by facing only her while we dance. G # 2 eventually fades out of the sceen, and the rest is Dong Fu history.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.
