"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.

Men Funnier than Women

"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.

I find this to be absolutely true. Sometimes I hear or read a text from women where they’re trying to be funny, and I find myself scratching my head and saying wtf does that even mean?

Sometimes it’s cute to see their flopped jokes. I usually seize the opportunity by saying “You really should leave the humor to us professionals”. It’s a nice little funny way to convey a slight disapproval.

My girl loves when I say that, because it highlights my own sense of humor in her perception. You can only get away with that if you really are witty, though.
