"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.

How come we don't ask daddy for advice?!

*This question only applies to those that grew up with there father's. I mean no disrespect to those who did not grow up with one.*

I thought about this...Our fathers somehow got with our mom's right? Have any of you ever tried asking your dad's how they got with mom? They must have done something! Simply put, why dont we ask our dad's for advice to see what they say, or if it matches with advice given here at Sosuave. Maybe our fathers were somehow founders of this place? =P
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I ask my father for advice, all the time. He knows exactly what's up, and has a good answer for any situation.... my mistake was taking my mom's advice, when i was younger. That's where it all went wrong.

Well, my dad raised me as an AFC. But i have learned from him because he is really funny (thankfully) and he can carry out a great conversation. For the rest of the things I ask my best friend's dad, cause he is a pimp

I'm in the same boat as Bad Ass, mums info when I was younger almost screwed me up, my old man and my uncle have given me the best advice sometimes, hell my uncle even said they are easy creatures once you learn the right buttons.

I've been more successful than my dad ever was with girls, but whether I want to admit it or not, he's always got some good advice. Using your dad for advice is probably one of the #1 things guys don't do that they should. It build a stronger relationship and they are bound to have more experience than you in most areas.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I love that saying! But anyways, Ive always wanted to talk to my dad about this kinda sh!t but ive been hesitant. Its kinda weird having a talk about how to pimp girls with your dad you know what I mean? But yea, Ive always had the feeling that once I do decide to go and ask him for advice that I just might learn some ground breaking stuff.
