"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.

I've pretty much got a decent grip on how to approach girls, get a conversation going, and leave with her phone number. However, there's one place where I totally freeze up, and I have no idea how to handle the situation. The till point at a coffee shop. It's seemingly impossible to me at the moment. I always feel like I'm on a major time limit (I've never been in this place before without seeing a huge queue), and whilst I manage to get a short conversation going with this girl and get a few laughs, that's pretty much it. She gets on with her job and serves the next person.
I'm not stressing much over this, but it would be nice to get a few tips on how to handle this situation. It seems quite advanced.
 

"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.

ooh thats a tough one. Maybe hang out there after you get your drink making sure to smile and eye contact
her then when she's not at the till, maybe do an "excuse me..." and start a convo that way.

Say you're in a hurry and you need to get going but would like to talk to her more, then number close her.
