"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.

So when you are getting to know a girl and both have interest in each other

-How often should you go on dates or hangout?
-Is to often gonna be a killer, is not enough gonna hurt your chances with her?
-Should you send little text messages here and there during the day to say hi? or should you leave yourself a mystery and not hit them up?

thanks playas
 

"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.

Yeah you just got to go with what you feel man. I got this thing going right now with this girl where we pretty much were in ****ty situations and we've talked about our problems and have both mentioned that we would be better off together but right now it can't happen. We hang out once a week and just bull**** a little bit online each day. Honestly, if it doesnt ever happen no skin off my back because she's still as cool as hell. I normally wouldn't do that much but this time it feels different because we're in no rush but we both know its coming. So just go with the flow man.

This is a tough question. The answer really comes when you're socially calibrated. When you date enough girls you realize that you don't need to call them everyday and hang out all the time to pull them. You still need to maintain the contact though. Texting is a great way to keep a light flirty dialogue throughout the day without being on the phone for the entire day (and risk having those petty awkward silences).

As a rule of thumb, hang out with her at least once a week. To avoid going into the friendzone, keep flirting without an expectation of outcome.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

awesome man, great advice, yeh i think texting is gonna be a good way to talk but keep it light and not to serious.(she texted me the other night after had hung out the night before, i had never texted her before that so she was the one who texted first) so that is a good thing im my mind (wants to talk to me and was thinking about me)
and as for hanging out atleast 1 time a week, i can do that and see how it goes from there.
-i just dont want to get to attached and chase her away you know

what do you think?
