"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.

Anyone here attend Illinois State, U of I, or simply live in or near the area?

A couple (somewhat) major towns are Normal, Bloomington, Peoria, Urbana, and Champaign.

Some other schools around here are Illinois Wesleyan University, Heartland Community College, and Lincoln Community College.

Personally, I live in Normal, IL and I attend Heartland. Peoria and Champaign-Urbana are within reasonable driving distance.

This also applies to anyone who plans to attend any of these schools soon, or anyone who regularly visits these areas.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Know the area

Normal is good hunting for 20 something guys. I hit a lot of a$$ there earlier this year. Try the apartments in and around the huge dorm complex (the big one by the courtyard). On the other side of the road is a bunch of white apartments. There is parties there during the weekends, at least when school is in session. You just walk from party to party and hit on chicks at the liquer store.

I doubt I'll be back up that way again until August. However, if you're ever in St. Louis give me a shout.

Idea

Take the Amtrak down to St. Louis.
I have more dates down here than
I know what to do with. Poverty,
unemployment, and crime are
through the roof. This is the
perfect place to meet lots of
desperate, young hotties.

It'll only set you back 30 bucks
roundtrip, and I'll show you
where to find the ladies.

Crime huh? Doesn't sound too safe.


Anyway, I'm bumping this because ISU starts school this coming Monday, and the mass-exodus of 7,000 students trying to squeeze into the way-too-small dorms in a matter of four days (Aug. 18 - Aug. 21) starts tomorrow.

"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.
