"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.

Lying to get what you want.

I'm not talking morally, I'm just talking about in common practice, is it going too far to lie to get what you want? For example, I messaged a girl on a dating site, and told her my real age (26)...she's 18...she said too old, the oldest she goes is 22. So I got a haircut (I look significantly different with shorter hair), made a new profile, told her I was 21, she said I was really cute and gave me contact info.

Does it make me a slimeball that I'm lying about age to get what I want...sex?
 

"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.

I like women much older than me, so I made a profile on POF and I put myself at age 41. I'm getting quite a bit of messages!

Women lie. Men lie. Sometimes you gotta.

Quite funny what happened to my friend.

He went to a club and met this girl there and while talking to her he told her that he was 22 while he was 27, and the girl told him she was 20. They hit it off so they left the club together, and on the drive he told her the truth that he was 27. He then find out that she lied too and she was actually 25.

They ended up getting happily married and they have a 5 year old kid. Not often do you find your wife at a club. lol

Men who lie get laid.
Men who don't lie play World of Warcraft.

This is why you don't do internet dating. If you are suave enough and met her IN REAL LIFE, your age (especially with that negligible difference) would most likely have not mattered at all, since in real life YOUR PERSONALITY COMES ACROSS.
