"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 far Ive gotten 2 comments from 2 diff girls. They say that I would be hot as hell if iI was to get a tan. So im debating about going to get one. I always thought its kinda girly to goto a tanning saloon.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

Then sit outside in the sun. Or, get an outdoors job, like wrestling wild bobcats or something.

How much is tanning?

Im white as hell(a few people have even called me casper) and I look really pasty in the winter because there is no sun in New York.
 

"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.

well my brother actaully goes outside on the weekends every week to get a tan. he would go to our backyard, place a little bamboo sheet on the grass, get a towel over his faced and jus tan from there. He would only wear his shorts. but i dont think u should get a tan because ur jus putting a mask on yourself. What would happen if u went out with that girl and you stopped tanning would she not like u anymore??? and besides what if u do get a tan and you dont look as good as u wanted to?

dude, haven't you been paying attention. what matters is the way you act. if ur able to get the girl to go out with your afc ass then losing your tan won't make her lose interest

The choice to go to a tanning salon is yours alone. Try tanning in your back yard first, it will save you money.

Moved to Anything Else.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

Just because you tan doesn't make you an instant AFC... I've been tanning for 2 years now, not because I care about what girls think but because I like the way that I look tan, rather than my natural pasty white color. I don't tan in the sun easily (well, now I do...) - before I started tanning indoors all I could do was get a sunburn. My advice is to get a tan if you think that will make you look better - it's not any worse than buying nicer clothes, or a better car... why not make yourself as attractive as possible? Take this into account.. would you rather a tan blonde girl, or one who's sickly white?

Except when you have to get chemotherapy for that nasty skin cancer!

Also if you get a tan you skin will age faster. So you may look slightly better today but you may look really ****ed up when your 50.
