"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.

Do you guys have any problems with this? I mean yeah, I can approach girls in quiet settings (food court, library, bustop etc). What I'm talking about is when people are around.

Its something I'm trying to get over. I just find it hard to approach girls when there is other people listening to the conversation. In orher words, I don't like having an audience.

The other day I was in school and this girl WAS looking, but it was a quiet lounge with people studying and although I would normally say something I didn't. She was giving me IOI's too. Of course as usual you wait to long the girl leaves which is what happened.

Thoughts?

I could use some pointers on what you guys do.
 

"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.

Drag her alone and talk.
Say like... "you guys don't mind if i borrow your friend for a minute, do you?"
and grab her hand and get her alone somewhere.

Yeah I sometimes feel the same way. There's this girl I really like who works at this tanning place. I'd love to just walk in there and chat/flirt with her for half an hour, but there's a waiting area right beside her desk and it's just too ****ing awkward to be hitting on her in an otherwise completely quiet room with other people there listening in.

I know I shouldn't give a ****. But I do.

Question: when you pull her away from her group of friends, what's the first thing you say to her?
 

"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.

If you do it ONE time without giving a f*ck about other people's perception of you, you'll overcome this anxiety.

It depends on the location. If I'm at a bar I ask her to help me pick a song from the jukebox or mention that I've seen her a few times before at the bar(maybe tease her and ask if she is stalking you). If it's somewhere else ask for advise or something involving the location...its an easy ice breaker.
