"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.

Personally, I think crying over a dead mouse makes you a big wuss but that is by the point.

IT IS ONLY A BIG DEAL IF YOU MAKE IT A BIG DEAL. Starting a conversation with her about how she saw you crying and what she thinks of you after that only screams of insecurity.

She'll be laughing in the back of her mind like what type of man are you that you not only cried over a dead mouse but you're worried about how she perceives you.

You have to maintain a strong frame and just act like it's no big deal. She will see you don't care about it or what she thinks about you and she will move on.

Draw her into your frame not the other way around.
 

"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.

Wow... I've killed so much stuff in my life I can't even imagine someone having a hard time killing a mouse. When you are doing these type of things it's generally not a bad thing if you have good reason to do it. A mouse in the house spreading disease destroying things is good reason to kill something. His death is justified because he is putting your life in danger.

I know you have heard things like that said before so maybe it doesn't mean much to you. Millions of people have suffered and died from rodent spread disease. Kill the mouse dude...
