"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 woman at work help required

Hi All, a new woman at work has started and we have been getting on really well over the past week with lots of conversion, banter and flirting behaviour.

She mentioned to me she does kids parties on the side and advertises on loads of different places on the internet.

Ive found her advert and her mobile number which I dont have from her yet. Do you think it would be ok to begin contacting her outside of work using that number or not?

Though we talk a lot a lot at work we are rarely together alone at work to ask for her num.

Please Help
 

"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.

The sunny side of the street.
Ever heard of the expression, "Don't sh*t where you eat?"

I'd advise against workplace dating, but that's just me. All the nonsense it leads to (and stories I read on here) if the relationship goes tits-up is enough reason to avoid it.

But if you really must pursue this woman, ASK for her number yourself. Ask for it in one of those rare moments you DO have alone. Don't use the number from her adverts to contact her for nonprofessional means. That's just creepy.

try it. see what happens. either she is open to it or she thinks you're a creep. depends how hot she thinks you are.

i once had a woman from my local bank call my personal phone. when i asked her how she got my number she told me she looked it up from my file. if she hadn't been so hot i might not have overlooked such creepy, desperate behaviour...

Why is that you have to talk to this particular chick? The same way you built up rapport with woman you can do it with another. The use the workplace as a place to supply you with women to holler at.
