"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Ok, so it seems that many (including myself) have trouble striking conversation with girls and keeping them going...and the way to start talking to a girl is to be funny and ****y as well as asking open-ended questions and keeping the conversation going by responding to what she says through the "clues" she gives you which is what you should say next. ...much easier said than done. It seems I have a hard time thinking of things to come up with to say after she is done talking, :confused: so exactly how are you suppose to keep the conversation going based on what she is saying and what are some specific examples of open-ended questions and funny things that are and can be generally used to keep the conversation going?
 

"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.

Easy enough. I usually open with an opinion opener, like Style's ex-girlfriend or cologne opener. To continue conversation, just use key words and branch off of them. Say she says she likes Pizza. Pizza's Italian food so use this to branch off, "Yeah I love pizza; always wanted to go to Italy and try some authentic stuff though." Something along those lines.

Really if you're relaxed you have no problem making conversation. Just the mindset really. I find a oneitis especially tough to talk to, cause you worry too much about what to say, and you get in that mode where you're searching and scrambling for words and they all come out wrong.

One part of me that I really needed to improve were my conversation skills. After my confidence went way up, next thing was to be nicer to people and more open. In turn, being nicer to people made it easier to talk to them. You don't always have to be ****y or funny. Just ask people how their days are or whatever and branch off from there.

I agree with the oneitis part.:up:

It's about being "Authentic" and talking about what you want to talk about. If you think whatever your saying is cool then she'll believe so too.

Practicing talking about random things. Remember all this is emotional so its no need to be logical and branch off each sentence. (Even though there isn't nothing really wrong with that) But practice just mixing up talking regular and using attract material here and there. If you have a hard time speaking then learn like 2 or 3 routines and use those whenever the conversation is dieing down.
 

"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.
