Bad?
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.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
I'm a style addict, and jean shorts don't look good with anything, unless you go for a country singer look. Its not about being an individual. Stay away from jean shorts.jeffthechef said:haha..i never wear jeans...even at night..just not used tot hem...but im starting to this summer
i usually wear shorts
all i know is....girls don't like guys in capris...but i dont like capris either
I GOT IT...GENIUS IDEA
you like jeans but not shorts...but want to wear shorts
JEAN SHORTS....GENIUS..IM A REAL MAN OF GENIUS:yes:
buutttttt....i heard on some fashion show..that jean shorts are a no no...but i think that applies only when you're a little older cause i see lots of guys still wearing them...if there are guys where you live that wear em...sure...if there aren't, still why not? You're an individual so **** the rest of them...literally too =)
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.
You got some decent style. I like the shoes.saturos said:I'm a style addict, and jean shorts don't look good with anything, unless you go for a country singer look. Its not about being an individual. Stay away from jean shorts.
And what are you talking about girls don't like capris? Hell of a lot better than athletic shorts...athletic shorts are practically never good in the way of style.
Jeans in the summer only fly on rainy/crap days

Maybe you should make a thread about it and make it a sticky(just basics, unwritten rules like the jean thing, pointers for the casual look you got going). I as well as some others, would really appreciate it. :]
