"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.

"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.

Go to a movie on the weekend. Go have a drink or a cup of coffee afterwards and hang out and people watch. Go to a barnes and noble and chill out reading magazines. Take a walk in the park or whatever nature-type place people tend to congregate on the weekends. Take a day trip to somewhere you haven't been to before, zoos, museums, whatever.

Have fun, alone. Learn to be comfortable, doing relaxing, enjoyable things where other people are, but my advice would be don't have huge expectations of meeting your future best buddy or girlfriend. It will take the pressure off.

I think you'll find that if you're comfortable, by yourself, and are just enjoying the moment, you'll be more relaxed and confident, and this will put you in a better position to strike up natrual, casual conversations with strangers.

wtf......
 

"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.
