"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.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

watcha got? any opinion on the OP?wallycleaver said:why don't dj's ever talk about all the std's they have?
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
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.
Okay...so, why were you whining then?sosilky said:yeah i said touch on it but the focus is on the subject at hand...moving along
seriously, let it go budLatinoman said:Okay...so, why were you whining then?
What is with the questions? I noticed you have about 5 or 6 threads. Why don't come with one thread and bulletize all those questions in one?sosilky said:seriously, let it go bud
thanx for the tipLatinoman said:What is with the questions? I noticed you have about 5 or 6 threads. Why don't come with one thread and bulletize all those questions in one?

Very few humans talk about all the STDs they have..... very few cool, sexually active/promiscuous people have no STDs..wallycleaver said:why don't dj's ever talk about all the std's they have?

If you ask a person and that person KNOWINGLY denies it...and you get infected...you can probably bring legal charges against that person. Make no mistake about that.DonGorgon said:Very few humans talk about all the STDs they have..... very few cool, sexually active/promiscuous people have no STDs..

when it comes to STDs.. Her past is her present and her futuresosilky said:wasn't talkung bout her past was talking bout her present
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
ha right the OP was about more then STDs but i hear yaDonGorgon said:when it comes to STDs.. Her past is her present and her future
