"Blank Mind on Dates? She's Dropping Hints You Keep Missing"

The plates get cleared and the silence lands like a brick. You can feel her waiting. Your brain offers up your commute, your job, the weather — topics that have ended more second dates than bad breath.

Here's what most guys never learn: women hand out free conversational material all night long. Tiny clues about what they actually want to discuss. Catch them and you never run out of things to say — because she's telling you what to say next.

Rule 4 of the "22 Rules" trains your ear to catch every single one.

Friend dragging me down

Ok, my friend just sends me a message..."Dude my parents just found my open box of condoms in my car and there was only one in there and they asked me about it and I said I got it from you." This really pisses me off. First of all both of our parents talk to each other all the time so this is going to get around to my parents that I have condoms, which I don't right now. My mom is a total highly religious prude and would never imagine me having condoms so she's gonna flip when my friends parents tell her. I can't believe my friend would drag me into his problem like this.

The reason he told his parents that he got that 1 condom from me was cause he already used the rest of them and didn't want them to know it. Should I be as pissed off as I am? I don't want my fvcking parents to find out cause then they will never let me go out again, cause they already think I'm out doing bad stuff when I'm usually not. I thought this guy was really my friend but a friend wouldn't do this especially when he knows how my mom is. Am I over-reacting?
 

"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.

Do what i did, forewarn your mum/dad, and then they can just sit therelaughing on the other end. My so called m8 did that as he borrowed a floppy (about 2 yrs ago) to take work on home. He then downloaded porn onto it and his older sis came in, so he claimed he was downloading it for me as my phone line was broken - bull****. He then phoned me and warned me, i knew his mum would tell my parents as she is very religious and prudish ( also american). So i just said to my rents what had happened and my mum basically said yes down this phone to his mum as she kept ranitng. Then she came off and laughed.
 

"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.
