"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.

I recently broke up with my fiancé in January. I am very happy with my decision and have begun dating other girls. I met a new girl and am not planning to hide the fact that I was engaged before. When the topic comes up, how should I go about telling her?

Should I tell her that I was in a "serious" relationship and save the details for later? should I tell her that I was engaged and it just "didnt work out and is in the past"? Or should I tell her I was engaged and tell her why it didnt work out?

I am hoping that she will still date me after I tell her. She's 22 and I'm 26
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Don't tell her to just tell her. If it ever comes up, then tell her. But tell her in a "whatever" kind of tone.

I agree I would definitely not hide it. I wouldn't parade it around but if it gets to that I'd tell her. Most women love to hear that you'd even consider marriage.

I remember asking a chick "What would raise more red flags for you ... a 40 year old guy who was married 3 times or a 40 year old guy who was never married?"

Without hesitation the chick said the guy who'd never been married would raise more red flags. This is true for most women who aren't themselves 35+ and never married :)
