"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.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
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.

You can thank yours truly for that too.
She asks. I am in Orlando. She's in NYC.

Should I say "bionic-ness" or say anything about bionic d1ck?
The other one messaged me back and said...
"I was on the fence about you because you are much younger"
What should I say to that?

Alternatively to the first one, go with, "I live in UES Manhattan. I'm down in Orlando for two days taking care of a contract. It was easy. She hardly squealed.
What about you, what do you do for fun ?"First one is about to drop, she ignored your question to her. Need to shock her a bit.
To the second, "Yeah, I heard that one before! It's you, who is too young for me princess.

"Everyone tries to talk about sex to me after like 30 seconds"

"I know, I know, hundreds of matches, 99% 'winners.' I live in NY, in Orlando on business for couple days. I'm rarely on this site, so let's take our convo offline. Give me your number and I will text you and maybe we can meet for a drink =) Richard"
Give her time to respond. Some respond 2-3 days later. Don't double e-mail.

Okay. I got a new match and she messaged me saying "Hello Steven" (fake name I use). What should I say?

You stud you.
Start with the go-to open:
Hey Veronica. I was going to right-swipe you earlier, but then I thought to myself, ‘Hmm, I don’t know about this one, she looks like trouble
You can thank yours truly for that open.

The second one gave me her number. What should I say on text? Surprisingly, her area code is a Tampa, FL area code.
"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.

I don't like one word answers. There is a certain level of presumptuousness in such a delivery. Here I would eject.
But for the sake of this thread and to further this discussion, let's take a shot. Normally, I reserve this for the third or fourth text, but since, she's not too keen, let's shotgun:
"To be honest with you, I'm not much into the back and forth exchange of texts or penpal thing. I would like to meet you Wednesday, 8 pm, at the Soho Grand, 2nd fl lounge (310 W Broadway) for a drink and get to know each other better. Let me know if that works for you =)"
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
