"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.

I'm reading alot of these replies, and alot seem like 'You say this, and this, and this, then get her number.' Is it really that easy/
If I met a chick somewhere and just started talking to her for like 5 minutes, I could get her number in that time?
Does looks have alotto do with it? I'm decent loking at best, I've had a few girls tell me I'm cute or whatver, but I'm not sure i could get a chicks number like that? i dunno
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

looks does, sure, but also what matters is body language, the way you dress, the way you smile, the general "look" you ooze.

One girl I'm thinking about seeing right now told me she has been interested in me since homecoming, because at a party after I "looked so cool and fun." I probably said two words to her then besides hello.

The "look" is what matters most.

I believe it's the ammount of confidence you convey that really matters when getting her number. But you also need to give her a small taste of excitement and leave her wanting more to make sure she doesn't flake.

Yes it's that easy...What really matters is...

- Your Voice
- Eye contact
- Body Language
- Personality (Confident, unpredictable, humor)

Your looks doesn't matter with the type of attraction you are getting. A lot of people don't know the attraction we are really using is the emotion "Attraction" not physical attraction.

That said yes you can get a # quickly. (More likely to flake since its not solid) Kissing usually happens in under 10 minutes. Sex takes a few hours spent together which may take a few days because you may not have time to hangout that same day.

But yes most people make it harder than it seems.
