I have been noticing this girl that works at the local pizza place. I havent been in there since May and tonight I go in to get a pizza. She remembers me and asks me how im doing. I wanted to ask her to come to my apt. to have some beer tonight but she was working in the back. My friend told me to leave a note on her car telling her to call my number to come hang out tonight . I didnt want to do that cause it didnt seem right. She gets off at 10 tonight. Should I go back when she gets off or leave it alone which I told my friend I should do in the first place. Im sure i will have other chances to get her to my place.
"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.
not sure what to do
