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.
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.
Don't mess with your co-workers or chicks that work for your airline. You have too much to lose.Contrails said:Anyone got any good openers for Flight attendants while being a passenger on a flight? I have a few flights coming up for work.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
He said he's a passenger...not one who works for the airlines...I got nothing for you OP...I just have this image of Leo DiCaprio in Catch me if You can, strolling through the airport surrounded by about a dozen hot stewardesses that he conned into helping him sneak by the FBI. I hope this ends up being you.Maximus Rex said:Don't mess with your co-workers or chicks that work for your airline. You have too much to lose.
Hahaha. Plenty of truth there.papawapa said:You planning on hitting on ugly 50 year old women or the middle aged gay guys?
In another thread, dude mentioned that he was a pilot and my assumption is that he would flying on a buddy pass, (flying for free on the airline.) Sooner or later, it wil come up that dude is a pilot. Y'all need to quit with this advising dudes to jeopardize their jobs by hollerin' at chicks they work with.gravityeyelids said:He said he's a passenger...not one who works for the airlines.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
