"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.

What do you guys think of karaoke. Its a big part of going out and partys.

Sure you can sound good or the majority of people sound crap but thats not the point. It shows others you are up for a laugh or they could jus think what a ****.

What are your thoughts guys ?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

man I love karaoke!!!

I don't have a good voice. My first time singing it was very bad, everyone was laughing at me. But eventually you'll get better at it with practice.

If you have plans for karaoke on a certain night. Try to listen to the songs that you plan to sing so that you would not be lost to the melody.

Another tip is to just let yourself go. Convey your emotions while singing. It would sound much better.

Asians love "K" (that's what we call it), treat it like a party... 'cos we really don't know what to do nowdays (I'm talking about Chinese people in foreign countries).
 

"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.

Karaoke Rocks!!!

I love Karaoke!! It is one of the easiest ways to break the ice with a girl. You can also pull out of the of the cheessist, stoopid krap possible and people will love it. I always get mega applause for my versions of 80's r&b classics and I am a terrible singer. Its all about the attitude you bring to the stage. Talent is irrelevant.
