My personal favorite tool is sarcasm. "Oh, is that the first time you saw me? I try to swing by at least a dozen times every day..." Or you could write something like, "Good call, it's not like you live on a high traffic street that's on the way to [insert place here]. That's definitely not it. You're right, it must be that I'm stalking you."
"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.
She thinks that I stalked her?
