"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.

Hello. I've heard some good things about this drug, but it works by inhibiting certain hormones. Has anybody here had experience with Propecia and noticed any side effects on body building? What are the side effects, and how well does it work? Also, what is a normal age to start losing hair?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

You should NOT take Propecia until you are in your early 20s, your body is still developing until then and it could do serious damage.

I've heard of bodybuilders that do take it and it doesn't do them any harm but as I said you don't want to be taking it at your age if you do have a hair problem.

You need to see your doc as it could point to other health issues.

Thank you for the reply. Yeah I was thinking of making an appointment with the doctor. However I'm not sure whether my body is still developing. I started really early, like grade 4!, and i havent grown an inch in over a year now. But yeah, I'll go see a doctor. ANybody else have anything to say?

Yo man, I took that **** for like 2 days and I had the hardest time getting it up so I stopped! When I did get it up and I could ***, it was almost painful and my *** was like water! So, my advice is stay away from that crap! Rogaine works good on my hair regrowth and it has no side effects.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

You can't be losing hair at 15 man...you must be hallucinating. I'm 21 and very young for losing my hair, but it's not even possible until like 18 or 19.

That's what I thought Dave, but I have noticed it thinning, and when I wash my head or brush my hair, I see like atleast 50 hairs come out each time. This only started like a month ago, before I would see like one or two hairs come out during those activities. Also, in some places it seems thin, but for some reason the actual hairline doesnt seem to be changing. I'm guessing because of my age it probably isnt male pattern baldness.. What else can cause hair thinning and lots of hair falling out though?
