"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.

Alright, so a couple months ago my friend meets this girl says he want her to go out with one of other friends, that never happens. He breaks up with his then current girl friend, and he then thinks about going out with this girl.

Well, she has a boy friend at that time I guess he forgets about it and starts sorta chasing some other different girl. Enter me, so a few weeks ago

I finally sorta half meet this girl. I guess I said something that pissed her off, did really care. A couple days later she start talking to me and my friend, I want to just ask this girl for her number. she talks directly to me more so then my friend and I've never really asked her for her name nor have we really been introduced, but we've talked a few times about the economy and such. (Shes actually at lest sorta aware about business and such.)

Would it be dis respectful to my friend (whos been one of my best friends since high school.) to sorta of move in on his territory?

The only time I see her is when I'm talking with my friend when he's waiting for the bus. The thing is tho he got her number and never did anything with it, he's defiantly been friend zoned by her, me not so much tho.

Should I just her for her number infront of my friend? Further more should I even tell him I'm going to ask her for my number or not?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

i'd tell him, if he's cool, then he shouldn't mind, after all, whats a little healthy competition amongst friends?

on the other hand, if he's not cool, and has some weird, unhealthy obsession with this chick, i'd leave it alone. no need to strain your relationship with this dude over some girl, there's plenty of them out there, bro's befor ho's!

At first, it seemed like it would be easy to just ask your buddy, but I'm thinking otherwise. If he doesn't think he's friendzoned, or thinks you're going for the easy path since he did the work for you, he'll be pissed. But then again, you know him better than any of us. Most guys would be cool if they knew they couldn't get it anyway.

It might just be me, but I can't seem to figure out what this means.
