"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.

Alright so you're about to hear about one of the stupidest and mindboggling things that I've done in my life:


Before I found sosuave for some reason?, I told a friend that I did stuff with my oneitis, which I didn't because we were in the friend zone. Well I'm out of the friend zone and I know shes into me when this stupid thing resurfaces (about 8 months later). I need to know what I should do... I don't think admitting it would be good because it makes me look like an idiotic pervert (which apparently I was) Should I do a ****y-funny line like, "No I didn't say that... I said I nailed you ;)" Or should I go with the "I was drunk" (I think I was drinking). So avoid the situation? Thanks

The pure situation is so stupid but it could cost me my entire rep that I have worked so hard to improve. So please help me mop up the stupid mess I made.
 

"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.

In my experience, if you've known a chick for more than 8 months you'll say plenty of dumb ****, and if they're really into you you can just say "sorry, but that's how I roll" and all will be forgiven. That being said, it's a bad idea to go with somebody you were in the friends zone with anyway.

tell the truth, no way out of this one, just tell her you lied and when asked why, say something corny like "becuase i wanted it to be true" be warned after using that sleaze ball line you will be treading on extermely thin ice and will have to make sure u dont **** up.

do that and youll be yesterdays news, on the other hand perhaps you should just avoid it and wait for it to go away.

OH yea, just remember next time, if your gunna tell white lies make sure you cover your tracks.
