"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 there a right way to approach a girl you haven't seen in years?

There's a girl from my senior year of high school who I haven't seen in a couple of years. I didn't realize it until about a month ago, but she had a huge interest in me in high school. We're now both seniors in the same college.

I just got her email address from an acquaintance of hers.

Is there a right way to say hi to her? Should I bother to try to explain how I got her email address?

Anyone have experience in this type of situation?

Any help is appreciated,

The only thing I can say is don't get your hopes too high. She may have had a crush on you several years ago, but things change over time.

All I can say is don't assume that she still likes you if you decide to contact her.

RE:

Just shoot her an email and keep it simple, direct and fun. Problem solved.

Unfortunately I don't have her phone number, and even more unfortunately is that I sent the email to a Hotmail account.

I have a feeling my mail will be marked as a spam mail for some reason since it's Hotmail.

Then again, I didn't make my message about penis enlargement, so I might be okay, but I'm not 100% sure, heh.

If she says something like "my boyfriend and i are doing great" THEN I will redirect her to a penis enlargement website.

I'm starting not to even give a flying f*ck about this.

Thanks guys,
