"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.

Following an approach I did on the train today, I 'accidently' figured out how to open girls who are wearing headphones.

It has been said by certain people in the community that you need a fancy line or opener to tackle this scenario. Lance Mason suggested some ideas....well I'm here to tell you that you DON'T need anything fancy here...

All you need to do is say your opener (any opener will do) as normal, but make sure you look directly at her (and make it obvious with your body language) while you say your opener. This will make it obvious to her that you're talking to her. Once she's realised you're talking to HER, in most cases the girl will simply take off her headphones and you can repeat your opener and carry on the sarge as you would any other girl....

Absolutely simple! This is no longer a barrier!
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

if the girl is nice and polite, she will remove her headphones. Honestly when I know the guy is trying to speak to me, I avoid eye contact and looking directly at him.

Some times I'm not even listening to anything and the headphones are on, and I can hear everything that the guy is saying. But I chose to ignore him and walk away.

act like you are mouthing something to her, and when she takes her earphones off to her you, keep mouthing words but not actually ennuciating them. Then give 'em a smile. If they are playful you can get an opening from that
 

"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.

Just say how it is. You're not sure, you discovered something, it's not tested beyoung that one yet.
