"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.

This is an email I sent to a chick, that came back to me after a year and finally gave me the "I went back to my BF (LTR)" line. Judge me.

"I want to become real close friends with you, cause I know it’s the best way to stop liking each other. If I wanted something more from you, you know that I would cut all contact. I hope this time that you’ll eventually see me as a friend. Have a nice day. Kisses"
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

You do realize that friendships are a mutual thing. Even if one side disagrees upon it (or doesnt want it), then there's nothing you can really do.

What's your goal? Get her back? You will invest your time much more efficiently if you invest it in another girl.
