"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.

Lets say that Im a Catholic and theres a pretty girl i see. Unfortunately, theres people all around her and im in a place that disapproves teen relationships. What are some things I can say to her so I can get her number? Assuming shes attracted to me
 

"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.

just hi???
I need a number not a statement
not the right attitude... ya don't need a girl's number.
everybody has to start somewhere, start by saying hi and opening her up to u... then you can go for the number when you close. you usually don't want to ask for the number in the beginning because you'll most likely be rejected too soon.

Say you'll call her and tell her the score of the ALCS if she gives you her number. :D

I kid, I kid.

You can't get the number without talking to her first, and you can't just use a scripted conversation. Start with "Hi" and then just have fun. Make her laugh, small talk for a few minutes, and ask for her number.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
