"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.

Hello guys,

I need to overcome my inability and fear concerning interaction with people, especially the beautiful girls. It's hard for me to have a long conversation with someone I just met or even otherwise.

What I don't need is more reading material, because I believe I've read almost everything out there. This is not even to get laid, even though I'm a virgin. My primary reason is to overcome this "fear" that might cripple my life in other areas as well.

Ones before did I start at the bootcamp, but I quit after the first week! I'm hoping your support and my determination will result in a better outcome this time.

Ok, here are my specs:

I am 18 years old, live in Holland and go to college.

My looks are not bad, I'm tall 6"2 and weigh 160 pounds.

I have my own appartment. Ride my bicycle.

Week 1 starts today, I will keep you posted.:)
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

Week 1 Day 6

Today I started doing the excersises for week 1. For those of you that do not know yet what they conclude, thes are the excersises:

-On two seperate outings,lasting 1 hour each, I must make eye-contact with whomever I pass by. I will try to not look away untill the other person does.

-Say hi to 50 people.

I just came back home from my first 1-hour-outing and said hi to 6 people so far during the process. It was not hard for me to do the eye-contact thing. Saying hi troubled me more. Because most people don't even look you in the eye at all. From the 6 people I said hi to, only about 3 said it back. Maybe I look scary or something..I was dressed in black..

Anyways I will have the rest of today and tomorrow for finishing up the excersises for this week, so time is a little short. Next post will be tomorrow.
