"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.

Girl is into me and wants to hang out

This girl that I work with (I work in a bar/club-I am security, she is a waitress) is always telling me I'm so cute and we need to hang out, etc... I am not very used to this kind of thing considering Ive never had any real type of convo with her and know very little about her (actually don't even know her name and age, don't know if she ever even gave me her name at any point). From the time I start work till I get off we are both busy and it is extremely loud, so it is hard to get any good convo in at all. The two issues I'm having right now is 1.Will it throw things off if I ask these two questions(name and age) bluntly? 2. More importantly, what would be a good idea for "hanging out." I know almost nothing about her so I don't know where I'd take her (don't even know if she's 21, don't have to be 21 to be waitress where i work) and not sure if just having her come to my house would would be the best option.
As for a little background on me I am 23 and have never been great with women persae but have been gradually getting better and better with attracting women and now need help with the next step of where to take them, how to make it seem casual, and how to do it cheaply (I am a college student living at home with little supplemental income) Any input is appreciated. Thanks.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

The first rule is not to **** where you eat. Don't mess around with girls at work.

That being said, if you don't care about your job, then proceed with caution. Since she's the one trying to get you to hang out, next time she says something you can just reply with "well, what did you have in mind?" with a sly smile (if you can't think of anything to do with her).

You could even go into the night saying how you have boundaries and that you'd be hanging out strictly as friends, but then have your actions subtly indicate the opposite. If you have the confidence you can even say "fine, I'll hang out with you, but you better not try and jump my bones." Everyone loves a challenge.

Again, this is very early on, but tread carefully. Report in with any developments should you need coaching.
