"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.

I used to be jealous of some of the guys that were always around girls. You know, sitting with a few female friends at a table. Walking a girl to her class at school...etc etc. Now I realize that these guys with all these female friends are the ones who aren't getting much action what so ever. Of my friends who have the most game, are the most confident etc...they don't even have 1 female friend. Sure they are great guys, and they do have some acquiantences but not any female friends. I guess I'm glad I'm not jealous of guys that have girly friends (who are usually good looking) because half the time they like them but were too scared to make a move. This probably isn't anything new but it's something I thought about recently and thought I'd point out.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I can imagine it being an advantage if you have a girl friend with you, since other girls may think it's your GF and they are going to want you too. I don't have any experience with this cause I only have guy friends, but it might work for you. Don't find it very neccesar. You should be able to do fine without it.

Who me? or the poster? because we are both saying we dont need or want female friends.
 

"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 have two very good female friends. There wont ever be anything between us, but having a good female friend can be a big plus, always good to have a "man on the inside".

Actually, one of em has been flaking and not returning my calls since she found some guy. Oh well. The same holds true with female friends and potential g/fs: if they flake on you, write that b!tch off.
