"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.

Should I learn to dance?

Good morning everyone,

I am halfway through the Rational Male book and was going to the subreddit section to ask this question but I noticed it has been placed on quarantine. I have heard Rollo mention this forum on the book and wanted to see if everyone else is hanging out here.

My questions is that I do not know If I should spend money learning to dance. I have a Fred Astaire studio near me but it can get really expensive and what they teach is ballroom dancing. I have also a Latino dance studio and they teach stuff like Salsa and Bachata. I know dancing can be good and can definitely increase fitness levels. I also understand it can increase sex appeal for woman.

What are your thoughts? Is it worth spending a few hundred bucks to learn some moves?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Definitely.Women love men that can dance. Proper dancing that is,not street dance.
 

"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.

Advice from the old lady:

YES! Learn to dance. Latin is best, swing & country western next best, then ballroom. Women LOVE to dance and enjoy men who can dance.

If you are a good dancer you’ll have an advantage. Women will want to dance with you. This gets you up close & personal with women & their bodies and you’ll learn a tremendous amount about women & you’ll gain a tremendous amount of self confidence from it. I married my ex husband largely because he was sexy and a great dancer. He also happened to own a nightclub so that was a cool perk, but he wasn’t as handsome as men I had dated previously (he was cute, no doubt), but he was confident, sexy and could move. Turns out he was also great in bed (bonus). I was a woman with more options than I could shake a stick at, and I dropped a professional male runway model in favor of my ex husband. Not kidding. The model was a wonderful man, utterly gorgeous, but so neurotic it was unreal. Ex hubby was confident and had a reserved sexy swagger to him. That was what won me over.

Learn to dance. Cannot stress enough the ways in which it will help you.
