"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.

Hey,

I've recently hooked up with an old school friend I haven't seen for years as I have moved to his local area. I suspect that we will continue to see each other from now on and be mates again.

Now, seperate to this I have also met his ex-girlfriend after not seeing her for a few years too. She has indicated to some of my friends that she wants a casual relationship with me. I'm going to say no, because as tempting as it is to give her a good seeing to, and although she split up with my mate over a year ago, I don't think it is worth it. I think it is more important to build a friendship with my mate again and banging his ex isnt going to help. Interested to hear what you guys think...

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Forget the "this girl told her friends" crap. What are you, 12? How do you know this chick is interested at all? Do you ever talk to her? If not, it's gossip. If so, see for yourself if she's interested.

OK I didn't make it all that clear, she does want something with me, all the signs were there and she has been texting me today.

Depends on your relationship with the guy.

I'd cut my balls off with a serrated knife before I'd bang a mates ex. If they're proper mates then they've earnt that loyalty.

If your not that close to the guy, I'd start nailing his ex pronto.

Well, no I'm not close to him really. Haven't seen him for about 8 years and when I used to know him, I wouldn't have called him a close friend. Although potentially now I can build a friendship with him again since we are living local to each other. So do I go for the casual sex laid out on a plate for me and possibly jeopardise a potential friendship? <scratches head>
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Hmmm. . . . <scratches armpit> yeah, that's a real tough call <scratches a$$>. . . . Hmmm

Disfunktional, could you just read your own last post again, and pretend it was written by somebody else? What's the first answer that comes to mind?
