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.
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.
Nope not at all.phooey73 said:Having the ability to be friends with girls is actually helpful in hooking up. Discuss.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
You're alone thereMaxtro said:Nope not at all.
I haven't even kissed any of the girls that were my friends. Also none of those girls have ever introduced me to any girls.
This one is helpful and worth readingScars said:^ That's good Maxtro. Make it very clear at the beginning of the relationship/friendship that you demand respect and always portray your sexuality. Even if she doesn't like you then maybe one of her friends will. The problem lies within oneitis. An AFC will have a girl friend trying to hand him off to get rid of him. While a good guy friend that she has qualified as good "boyfriend material" will generally get her hotter friend. Woman love to play matchmaker! But of course, you should avoid female friendships all together unless you're getting SOMETHING out of it.
This one isn'tExhumed said:You're alone there
I don't even think that is true. I've never had a girl try and pass me off to somebody else. The only conclusion is that they may have thought I wasn't good enough for any of their friends... Or maybe none of their friends were single at the time.An AFC will have a girl friend trying to hand him off to get rid of him
