"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.

Is it awkward to cold approach in the train? subway? train/subway station?

On any given day, I see tons of HB's while I'm waiting for the train or riding on the subway. Is it creepy to make these approaches or not? Will approaching a HB on the train put me on the same level as a homeless person asking for money on the subway? Will I develop a reputation for being THAT guy very quickly on the subway if I make tons of approaches on it or am I just being insecure? I'm talking about making these approaches on the same subway train I take to go to and come home from work everyday in an urban area.

PS. There is a homeless guy I've seen 5 times already on the same subway train that I regularly take who asks for money from passengers. I mention this to highlight the frequency with which the same passengers might see me making cold approaches, which could be embarrassing.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

It's only awkward if you make it awkward, approach her and work your magic

If you think you're on the same level as a drunk bum. Yeah you're on that level.
If you think you're hot sh1t.. She'll be flattered you approached her.

It's all in your head. Don't expect anything good or bad from the situation. Just go naturally "Wow, that girl's kinda cute.. I'm gonna go talk to her and get her number." Worst scenario is that she says "no" and you never see her again. So what?

.. And here's whats happening from any guy or girl that may be judging you for this..

Guy thought : Wow what a creeper loser!
real thought : I wish I had the balls to approach that babe!

Girl thought : OMG I can't believe that slvt actually gave out her number to that random guy on the train!
real thought : I wish that guy approached ME so I could give him MY number so he could bang ME tomorrow night. UGH!

most people are bored, most people want to have some kind of human interaction in life. I think most people would enjoy meeting someone new. As the others say, its on you. If you are awkward, you might make others feel awkward, but even if that is the case, after a few days of doing it, it will seem normal to you.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

You're thinking too much about the reactions you may get.

Just go in for it. When your attitude, body language, and overall vibe about you as a person is cool, not one where you're "asking for something" like a homeless dude, she will stop for you and hear out what you have to say.

Women will pick up on a guy's vibe in the first few seconds and can easily distinguish whether you're trying to sell her something etc.
