"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.

Hi guys,

As it's almost Christmas time, I'm looking for ideas for presents to give my lady friends. Now, I don't want anything like loveheart shaped chocolates or flowers or anything like that. I think something small, quirky, thoughtful is the way to go. Only trouble is, I'm pretty strapped for ideas.

Any suggestions?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I'm pickin' up a bunch of Sex for Dummies books(it's a How-To book) for my mates. It gets a laugh from everybody and you know they'll read it.

That's actually not a bad idea at all! I reckon I might take your advice on this one :up:
