"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.

Strange proposal from a girl

OK, this hasn't happened to me personally but has happened to a good friend of mine, he needs advice on his situation and wants to know what to do.

Bascially, he was sitting in the college library one day and reasonably hot looking girl (~HB7-8) came up to him and said something along the lines of:

"Heya, my name is "____", I'm 26, and I did my bachelors at "x", my masters at "y", and my doctors at "z", I'm thinking of emigrating to the United States and I've already got my visa. I was wondering if you would like to come with me, and maybe we could settle down together?"

I joke not, and the girl looked pretty serious, even handed him her mobile phone number (which, incidentally, was real) and told him where she lived. Under any normal circumstances the reply would be "Don't trust this girl, she's playing a really sick joke on you and would like to see your reaction." But on the basis that she actually gave him a working telephone number, and what essentially sounded like a possible marriage proposal, or, failing that, a definite "yes" to "Will you go our with me?"

I mean, how would you react to that?
 

"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.

The same thing happened to me. This woman asked me to go to America with her and when I said no, she kept hounding me and countering my excuses.

So here I am somewhere in America with this fairly hot girl. It's not too bad. She let's me out of the cellar every weekend and she only beats me when I disagree with her. She says we're going to get married as soon as I can walk again!

stay away as far as possible

either she is nuts or she is playing a joke on this person
 

"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.
