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.

America has already convicted him in the media. They are already comparing him to OJ.Rescue Mission said:So some random 16 year old bytch decided to try to become rich by using a fake rape charge? What else is new??
Morons in the media need to stop accusing men of crimes just because some lying bytch decides to open her mouth in hopes of getting some $$.

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.
I have to agree here, looks like a typical BS "statutory rape" case where there's really no rape involved at all.Rescue Mission said:If he did have sex with her, its not really RAPE rape, its just sex with a "minor", but obviously this h0e knew exactly what she was doing.....its not the same as raping a child who doesn't know what sex is or how it works.
Now, Lawrence Taylor is going to be RAPED by the unfair American pvssified pro-women anti-men law system.
Furyguy said:The way I read this, basically
1) LT contacts a pimp looking for a good time
2) Pimp brings this 16-year-old ***** over for a night of fun, the bill is $3000. **** goes down as usual, until...
3) Pimp recognizes LT as NFL hall of famer, tries to formulate some plan to extort money, but someone ****s up and the authorities are called into play.
No one got raped in the traditional sense of the word, but in one of the multiple legal definitions of rape, he committed "rape" by sleeping with a girl younger than 17. She and her man come out with $3000, her man gets arrested, LT gets arrested, and she is the victim. Not a bad break.
It's a shame such a great guy can't keep his **** together, though.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
