"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.

I hate my voice sometimes and it is something I really need to improve on, when I was younger in 1st school I used to see a speach therapist. But now I find it hard to pronouce certain sylabols or certains words, which means my conversational skills can be very poor sometimes or i'll cut it down to small sentances or one word answears to avoid embarassment. Is there anyways to improve my pronouciation? can anyone point me in the direction to look in either some websites or any decent books I can buy?

cheers
 

"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.

No Bible he needs an SLP ( Speech Language Pathologist) and then toastmasters.

http://www.asha.org/default.htm

You can find a directory of SLP's on that site. You can also checkout your local colleges, because they often need patients.
