"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.

Hey guys:

I've been a lurker for a long time and thought I'd share this idea with you guys. Let me know what you think.

This works great if you just can't decide what to do or you don't know the person you have the date with well enough to know what they may prefer to do.

Create three different signs that state "Door # 1", "Door # 2" and "Door # 3".

As the date begins, ask your date to choose a door, in this case, sign. Let them know what is on the other side of the sign as options. Then play it like the game show. You chose Door #1 do you want to trade? Only let them trade 1 time! That way you can save the other one for next time. Trust me they will want to know the 3rd option but don't let them!

This will prevent you from appearing like you don't know what to do on the date and actually shows her that you had the dating intelligence to put together several dating ideas for the evening. For me it is a win win situation.

See you guys soon.

"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.

...So you're supposed to create signs? Sounds like a lot of effort for a girl you don't even know well enough to know what she likes to do.

Just take the lead and bring her somewhere YOU would like to go. If she's cool with it, great. If she whines and *****es about how she doesn't like what's going on, next her. It shows that she's immature, inconsiderate and probably high-maintenance.

I totally agree with you, I have never used this on a first date and chances are I never will for the reasons you listed. I only use this on the 3rd or 4th dates and even then it really depends on the girl. It just brings a sense of playfulness immediately at the very beginning of the date.

The cards could be 3 new movies that came out etc... don't make it too hard just have fun with it. This method works for me because all of them know I like to have fun and this is right up my alley. Most of the cards are just index cards and in all take less than 1 minute to make up. But thanks for your input.
