"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.

Alright fellas. So I got my permit last week, and I am going to learn how to drive within this next 6 months. I did my first in-car lesson today, did rather good haha. Was in a parking lot, just learning how to operate the steering wheel and using the break and accelerator correctly. I still got to get better control of the steering but overall not too bad.

So any tips/advice you guys can give me so I can get decently good in around 6 months? I test in Janurary(well, I can test then). So ya, anything is greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
 

"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.

don't text and drive and use speaker/Bluetooth when talking. don't eat and drive, but if you must, wraps, brugers, and burritos are good non-messy driving foods. if you have a smartphone and a car mount (invest in a decent one ~$20), you don't need a GPS. Any kind of audio jack/aux connection to play music is totally worth it (a cheap tape jack or fm transmitter is <$20). be a courteous driver and go slow in construction/school zones, as these are common places to get ticketed.

And no matter how late you are, it's not worth it to speed and drive unsafe.
