"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.
talk to 100 strangers a day

"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.

yeah... this is an EXCELLENT way top boost your confidence and overall, MEET PEOPLE! And like Guitar_Whizz said.. 100 girls a day IS a bit much, but i see what you are saying, and i agree with it 100%... I natrually say "hi" to MOST strangers that i come across, i have been doing so since i started my own bootcamp a while ago... and i just contunied doing it.. Peoplle miught think that just saying 'hi" to random people wont help... hell, thats what I thought too.... but i was wrong.. it DOES do a hell of a lot for your confidence levels, and it makes you more sociable too. So yes, this is a good thing to do, and i would suggest that everyone does this on a regular basis...

"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.
Its not about the conversation.. its about the confidence it gives YOU.. its not like your going to ask them out
And if they DO happen to be a HB and has some good conversational skills, then i'll make an effort to get her number and make plans with her in the near futureIce Cold said:
