"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.

Hey guys,

A friend and myself are going away to England (Canterbury hopefully!) in about a week's time. It should build up my confidence as it's my first time living away from home which means Ill have to do a lot of things on my own.

Have any of you guys moved away to a new city recently? Any tips? Would b really helpful.

Thanks - oh and Ill try my best to post field reports!

No tips, just wanted to say congratulations. I remember it was quite something for you to take this step.

Actually, one tip. Eye contact is your friend. English girls respond really well to confident, sexy eye contact from an attractive stranger, despite appearances to the contrary.

All the best.

"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.

I'm in London. I think English girls like any accent except English. Just like Ozzie girls like any accent except Ozzie, etc.

I moved away to uni in the fall.... It was a big step but a very easy one. Just put everything into my room, went to school first days, got into the newstudents program with older students having groups they show around, throw parties for etc. Suddenly I had 30 new friends and 30 new numbers and it just grew from there.
