I love anything written by Napolean Hill.
"Think and Grow Rich" is a goldmine!
"Think and Grow Rich" is a goldmine!
"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.

very true, but it is just another thing that will help make your life go easier and maybe I should have said, "Wife." She can take half your sh!t too if she wants to leave.djtdot said:

Quality chicks that aren't gold diggers? Rare.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Every chick is a gold digger*, it just matters to what degree.
* = everybody loves money but just to a certain degree.

Great book imo...one of the best lessons out of it..people absolutely hate criticism... absolutely hate it..especially women..
the line from the movie..."
just take away reason and accountablitly from a man and you have women."
