"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.

Went out with the mates tonight to shoot some pool. Next to our table a cutie was shooting pool with her walrus-ugly two girlfriends. She didn't look like an AW so I decided to approach her since none of my mates had confidense in it. After finishing my turn at our table I walk to theirs and start talking to the cute chick. I made small talk about girls night out etc...Then i asked her name and what college the goes to. I said I'll get back to her and went to finish the game with my mates. When I returned they were gone! Schit, i felt really bummed. Is there any way i could've sped up the approach and number closed despite of all the circumstances? It was awkward because i was breaking her away from her game and i was holding up my mates. I'd like to know in detail how you would've dealed with this.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

yeah, I woulda did close to the same, 'cept to punish my guy for bieng a coward I woulda prolly ended it with something like

To WB (walrus bunny) "Oh yeah, my guy says you can't beat us in a game of pool."

{icthing for attention, the WB would have took 'him' up on his offer, which in turn, gives you ample time for the HB rapport build-up/close etc.

I'm an A-hole so pardon me if this seems a bit wrong to do to a friend

learn how to use a wingman (or two) and use a wingman next time. that wingman could've taken the grenade (one of the 2 other walrus chicks) and you just stand in the background waiting to attack the real target.

but yeah that was a approach albeit a crappy one.
 

"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.
