"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.

at the start of the year i was 'friend zoned' by a girl i really liked. i was an AFC then.

when it happened, instead of turning even more AFC, i decided to stop being a little wuss and do something about it. i cut contact with her for a long time and had a few things with other girls, eventually she made contact with me again, this time i used plenty of ****y funny on her, teased her, I even joked about how she had 'friend zoned' me, basically i just

anyway, the other day she texts me and asked me what i was doing on saturday... i said not sure yet, why do you ask? she replied:

umm saturday, my sister wont be home, and neither will my parents, so i thought id ask you to come over for once..

what do you guys think? also im kinda a little bit nervous about going over, not sure why... any tips on how to keep it cool?
 

"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.

You're not out of the friend zone till you sex her. Go over there and take care of business.
This ^^

I would keep the teasing going strong.." So if I come over I expect some quality food and a back rub ... What time are we eating?"

The idea is to keep her emotionally stimulated until the time comes when you get her 'really' stimulated.

The mindset you need is this one - she contacted you and asked you over, therefor YOU are doing HER a favor by going .
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
