I like to think of myself I'm a pretty creative and funny guy. ( That's a lie, I know i'm funny.) However there is this one opportunity that presents it self and i don't know how to go about it. To basically cut to the chase, I made a bet with this girl i'm gaming. The winner gets any favor from the loser no questions asked. I won the bet but i can't think of a favor. It has to be a good one, so any input would be welcome.
"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.
