"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.

Study "dates"

I've never understood this thing people call a "study date". A girl I met rejected my offer to have coffee, and instead suggested we should study together. Luckily I managed to persuade her to the coffee option with my handy bottle of knock-out gas.

But lately I see this happen a lot to other people. I see guys at college asking girls out...to the library to study.

What is this trend? Have I become an old man who is missing out on some vital part of youth dating? Isn't sex in the library against their rules or something?
 

"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.

Possible reasons...

Some girls are just that way... They dont like to make things official for some reason, its like they are affraid of something... I'm not sure why... I have met girls that were also afraid of "proper dates" and also some girls that were head over heals for a guy but would not "go out" with him. I think that some girls just need more time getting comfortable around a guy.

It can also do with what the girl will think about what others will think about her for going on a "date" with this guy, so nothing bad can come out of "learning togeather":rolleyes:

Some girls might just be too immature for dating so they will try and turn a "date" into something else. ie: A "study date"

The girl also might just not be interested in the guy, but she will also not want to hurt his feelings, so she will turn it into something else. ie: A "Study date"

Those are the main reasons that i can think of that a girl will prefer these "study dates" over proper dates... Hope it is of help;)

It's probably what is known as a "cop-out date". In other words, she'd rather eat her left foot than go out with you but does not want to appear mean so she offers to study with you. Basically, "let's just be friends".

Hey hey hey.... lets not jump to conclusions here... I have seen many occasions when the chick was genuinly shy or was just too nervous about the idea of a proper date (immature) or that they are just not comfortable enough to go on a date with the guy... There is no ONE reason to what it means. (Read my above post) ... The chances of her not being interested as a result in her turning it into a "study date" is high, but its not necceserely correct in all cases.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
