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.
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.
There are two schools of thought on this one, sac.sacgrad said:I went out on date 3 with this girl. We make out, she enjoys it. We spend 4 hours together and then when she's leaving, I asked to be invited to her house.. she said "Im still not sure yet.. about the sexual chemistry". I dont feel the sexual tension but so love hanging out with you". Then says "I am very selective and you are an awesome guy - but I need some time". She also said " I need to talk to my friend & guide". This seemed a bit weird. I told her that this decision should be hers. Also told her whatever she decides is fine.. she just needs to make a decision...
What am I supposed to think/do?
She is giving you all the reasons not to have sex with you. When you guys eventually have sex, it will be happening on HER terms. She is using SEX to CONTROL the relationship. Single mothers are not a dumb as some may have you believe. They know what they want and are ferocious.sacgrad said:I went out on date 3 with this girl. We make out, she enjoys it.

WHY WHY WHY did you go out on another date? Dinner, her house or yours. What are you afraid of? You are operating under the AFC notion that girls need to be wined and dined before they give it up. GIRLS JUST WANT TO BANG!!!! They want to BANG the RIGHT guy though. These formalities are for you. If they are not BANGING, you are the WRONG guy. You could have bypassed all this horseshvt, not wasted 4 hours, and known what this girl was all about.sacgrad said:I went out on date 3 with this girl. We make out, she enjoys it.

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.
