"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.

Point taken, sir. I'll play it cool for longer.

Let me know when it's been long enough.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

LOL.


Maybe never.

I just think you've out yourself out there several times. She's not taken the bait - she's still into her ex. - or is hung up on him.

Maybe she'll never get over it? maybe she will.

But I don't see as it's something you'll be able to get her out of. It's probably something she's going to have to do herself.

So the strategy is to stay cool and let her make the next move when/if she is ready?

Once she puts herself out there, then I'll know she's ready to move on. If it never happens, then I'll just forget about it, I suppose.

Well, I got to hit it again last night, for what it's worth. My macking technique has paid off.

Is she coming around? I think so, but slowly.

I'll just play it by ear. I would put my chance of landing this girl more steadily in the 30-40% range.
