"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.
New pope AFC?

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

A true follower of Paul, not Christ. The Catholic church was responsible for what is called "the Inquisition" where they'd hold a cross up to "suspected" witches/nonbelievers etc and if that person did not repent right there on the spot, they'd set him/her aflame all-the-while as he/she was burning alive asking him/her to repent (even though he/she was already half-way dead).

Popes take a vow of celibacy, so I don't think they fall under the AFC/DJ type categories.
As someone said in the comments, why is it surprising to find out that people had a life before they entered religious service?
Sounds like he loved a girl before he became a priest. That's something a lot of young men do, it's part of life. Does that really make him an AFC? Would you have been happier if he was a player?

I like him, too.Down Low said:
And the heads of the Eastern Church (Orthodox) attended his inauguration for the first time in 1300 years or something to that effect.
They could actually join back together for the first time since the Great Schism in the Middle Ages. That would be really cool to see, as a Catholic.
The doctrine is very, very similar.
This is going to be a watershed year, culturally.
"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.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
