"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.

Go Patriots. I don't think there was any wrongdoing there with the deflating incident (and I'm from New England-easy).
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I stopped watching professional football, baseball, and basketball last year. Haven't watched a single NFL game this year.

Even though I won't be watching, I will say, Watch out for those feminist ads Fellas. This would be a great time to convey to friends and family about how much misandry is featured in those ads.
Ha, funny enough, this has what TV has ultimately come to for me, just laughing at the terribleness of it all. They are marketing HARD to the female population. I will probably watch the Super Bowl and drink some lite beer while I do, making me a hypocrite, but oh well, it's literally the only NFL game I have seen this year. I'm sure Katy Perry will make an ass out of herself at half-time too.

this is the first year that i really could give 2 ****s about the super bowl. I usually throw a little super bowl party but this year i'm like screw it I'm just gonna watch movies with my wife and son all day.

I think what ruined it for me is that the NFL is TOO available 24x7 365 now for 2 weeks straight it's super bowl super bowl super bowl and i just do not care. i don't care about the ads, i don't' care about the teams.

Me too. I haven't watched any NFL games this year. I sold my TV to my dad when I realized I had not turned it on in over a year.

I watch a little UFC, and I still watch baseball when the Cardinals are good, which is just about every season. It must be like being a Patriots fan.
 

"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.
