"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.

What To Do?

More than likely she didn't see gave you that number on purpose. Here's how you remedy this problem:

When you go for the number close and TELL her to give you her number hand her your phone, or if your of the "quill pen," generation like myself when you hand her a a pen and piece of paper, have her write the number herself.

Or you can try this method. I read this little tibit on this very site a while back. Ask the chick for her phone, then calll call yours. As a matter of fact do that the next time you see the chick. Here's how the scenerio should go:


Wrong Number Chick: How come you didn't call me for my birthday?
Vice: I was suppose to call you for your birthday? When did we make this arrangement?
WNC: Right before Xmas break.
Vice: My bad. Christmas was real hectic for me anyway. I spent the morning and the afternoon with my family. Then that night, me and my boy went to the club with these chicks. Why didn't you call to tell me Merry Christmas?
WNC: Because I don't have your number.
Vice: See that's why I could never be in a relationship with you. Your not thoughtful and would expect me to do all of the work. Namely phone calling.
At this point she's calling to start qualifying herself to you and give you examples on why she's thoughtful. You've also disqualified yourself as a potential suitor. I would also advise you engage in kino at this point.

Vice:Hand her a pen and piece of paper, your phone or take her phone and call yourself. Give me your number. I'm going to get something to eat. Come with me.

If doesn't have to be a meal. It could be to Starbucks, 31 Flavors, Barnes and Noble, but the key is to bounce to another location right then and there.

I have a question. Why did you specifically wait till Christmas to calll her. You DLVed when you waited till Christmas. Next time, call the when you want. Not when she says. Good luck. And give us a recap.
 

"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.

I'm in High School, so we can't really "bounce" anywhere. I'm also only 17, and she's now 16. And I tried calling Christmas Eve, not Christmas day.

But I'll recap on what happens, this is the only thing that makes me want to go back to school now lol

Buddy I've gotten more fake numbers than real numbers when I go cold approaching(very rarely now unless for kicks with my bro's).

She had the chance to meet you, she wasn't interested, move on. period.

The only thing that would be in the way at this point is your ego... "Why isn't she attracted to me???"

Don't ask yourself that question. Be your best self and don't bother with the people who aren't diggin you.

How should I handle this? It might have been a genuine mistake but before winter break I told her that I should give her a call on her birthday (Christmas day) and then she quickly blurted it out and I remembered it.

Before this I got a few IOI's but it was most likely her being friendly.

Anyway, I tried calling it on Christmas eve and lo and behold; wrong number.

I'm going to next her, but she's in one of my classes and things are going to get really awkward for at least a week.

I'm going to assume she did it on purpose. How should I act? And what if she confronts ME and asks me why I didn't call her?

Either way, nexted unless she shows genuine interest.
If I were you, always get the girl's number! Make her dial your cell phone # and you'll have the right number!
