"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.

ok so there's this one girl that used to really like me and i used to really like her...at the beginning of the year. i probably almost had oneitis on her. it was going really nice. but recently we haven't been talking much and she ignores me a lot. anyways, heres what happened at school today. so i was leaving and we run into each other. i say hi and try to walk past. but she blocks me (does the thing where you walk where they do) and then i think i say something like, 'you're crazy', she walks by and i follow her. she says, 'no im not crazy'. we go through this a couple of times with words like, insane, hyper, etc. she just says, no im not...to everything i say. then after that she says, 'guess what i have a stalker.' i say, 'oh...who is it?' she says, 'well its this kid that likes to follow me around after school and he's right next to me'. (i almost never see her after school). then i say, 'want me to leave (a really wuss move i bet)', she doesn't really say anything and we keep walking. now we go to where her friend is, i say hi to her, and i say, 'hey, whats up i'm (girl)'s stalker...apparently'. she doesn't really laugh like i expected her to. then i just talk to her friend for a while, about her job, etc. and im just in the room with her and her friend...but she doesn't seem really interested in me at all. its kinda boring. i say, 'u know what, stalking you is kinda boring', she says, 'then leave'. but she doesn't seem irritated or anything. anyways we just talk about random stuff (us 3) and then the girl's other friend comes in (we were talking about her) and how i caught her kissing her bf this one day after school. anyways yeah i know this other girl pretty well and its kind of fun now...anyways still, she does not show a lot of interest in me, but we're just talking. then its time to leave, the other two leave alone and i leave with her, when we go all she does is say bye kind of fast then we walk away. i don't know what to make of this at all. what is my next step? about the 'stalker'...was she joking? i have no idea what's going on. btw i have more info...please help lol
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
