"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.

Highlight, copy > paste and print the ABCs below. Use large font and put in on your door! Elaborate on any of them as you will.

Avoid negative sources people, places and things.

Believe in yourself

Consider things from every angle

Don't give up and don't give in

Enjoy life today. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow may never come

Friends and family are hidden treasures, seek them out and enjoy their riches

Give more than you planned to (except with women early in a relationship)

Hang on to your dreams

Ignore those who try to discourage you

Just do it

Keep trying no matter how hard it seems, it will get easier (except with women)

Love yourself first and most

Make it happen

Never lie, cheat or steal. Always strike a fair deal (except in business and women - lol)

Open your eyes and see things as they really are

Practice makes perfect

Qitters never win and winners never quit

Read, study and learn about everything important in your life

Stop procrastinating

Take control of your own destiny

Understand yourself in order to better understand others

Visualize it

Want it more than anything

Xcellerate your efforts

You are unique and nothing can replace you

Zero in on your target and go for it!
 

"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.

HAHAHAHAA...but that's like freakin, 26 letters!!!

Great idea though, post it up everywhere and internalize it. You'll be a better person afterwards.

I'm impressed you came up with something for X.
Nice post
 

"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.

lol, well you could look at like this with women ..

If you do K
Keep trying no matter how hard it seems, it will get easier (except with women)

Where women are concerned, you're ultimately doing I and K
Ignoring her because she IS discouraging you (and thus no longer trying harder)

It's meant to apply to life in general and not exclusively to women.

I thought i'd share as its helped me some and gets your day off to a good start - sets the tempo

"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.
