"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.

Lol so if we run out of oil, will we go back to fighting battle on horsebacks and if I want to go to Europe will I have to take a ship?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

what about offshore drilling in the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico?

What about shale oil in the rocky mountains?

I've been hearing from my professors that there is a sh!t load in the rockies.

I'm confused. How is the price of oil and the price of gas related? How come the price of gas fluctuates wildly from country to country and in the US state by state. Is it really the market price?

The national average for the US for regular is $3.59. In the city I live in the lowest price is $3.85

I'm getting my data from Gas Buddy

Gasoline is NOT the same as oil. Oil has to be refined in a refinery.

So, oil goes to a refinery...and from a refinery we get gasoline, diesel, kerosene, jet fuel, asphalt, etc.

Country to country? A series of issues...transportation costs, maybe they have to import their refined products, maybe their emission laws require a lower sulfur product, etc. Same goes with state to state.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
