"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.

Never be like THAT guy

I met a girl a little while back. Some of the normal red flags presented themselves, and part of me knew at that point she was trouble. But whenever we talked she seemed like deep down, red flags aside, she might have been a nice girl. One that was actually worth being with. She had a personality that attracts you, and I had this crush that wouldn’t go away. That was until getting the confirmation that I so desperately needed. Not going to name the details, but she’s no different than any of the other chicks who present the same red flags.

There’s this other guy who was always hitting her, and he looked like an idiot every time. He didn’t seem to have a crush either, and was the kind of guy who wanted to f**k whoever he could. This girl is still at the same place of work, and this guy is now chasing her hard because he knows it. He’s going out of his way to park his car next to hers, and I see him hanging out where he thinks he’ll see her next. He’s obsessing over a low quality attention wh0re type who is only slightly pretty, and tries to coast by on her looks. Needless to say this s**t he’s doing won’t get him anywhere, but it stood out to me.

It was a reminder to NEVER be like him. It shows how some guys are so desperate for puzzy they’ll do just about anything, and don't have any kind of self respect. The point of this post is to point out how bad it looks to do what this guy is doing. How it obliterates his already non-existent chances, and comes off as creepy. DON’T DO THAT.

No matter what, keep it together. I had a f**king crush on her, and never did any of that dumb s**t. Meanwhile he doesn’t even care about her, and is doing creeper s**t? No matter what emotions you’re feeling, or how much desire you have to f**k something, keep your head on straight. Chances are this b**ch you’re going after isn’t worth it any way.

"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'm with you, I would never do this. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up getting in her pants. I see guys like this every day. They don't care about pride, as long as they can get laid. That's all they care about, and they will go to whatever extreme they need to get there.

Bro I think you still have feelings for this girl, otherwise I don't think you'd care this much about what he's doing.
 

"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.

Yup almost posted the same thing, no shame does well, chasing and caring is the death sentence.
