"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.

The garlic breath story (read it for a laugh at least). Help me out.

No it shouldn't hold you back. Just because a woman has a "boyfriend" doesn't mean she's not down with taking a roll in the hay with the first guy who is decent enough and has the cojones to approach her.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Haha... that's cool. Funny how that never crossed my mind. But she seems like a descent person... not the type of gal who goes sleeping around with random guys. Oh well, i guess i'll have to find out myself.

Yeah it's hard to know what boyfriend means these days, there's certainly no harm in trying. At the very least, you get shot down by a chick in a relationship. No huge loss right?
