"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.
These guys got balls the size of a Death Star

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
The guys with balls the size of a Death Star as you nicely put it, are also Libyan doctors returning to Libya from Britain to treat rebels.
They left the life of comfort and good income to help. If caught by Khadaffi's gestapo they will be tortured and executed. I applaud them.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Law 5: So Much Depends on Reputation— Guard it with Your Life
Reputation is the cornerstone of power. Through reputation alone you can intimidate and win; once it slips, however, you are vulnerable, and will be attacked on all sides. Make your reputation unassailable. Always be alert to potential attacks and thwart them before they happen. Meanwhile, learn to destroy your enemies by opening holes in their own reputations. Then stand aside and let public opinion hang them.

So you little boys really believe this? Doesn't surprise me. Reason all of you will follow your father's footsteps. Daddy hates life, and so will you.
Here is a hint. Everything that is shot is basically scripted. Why don't some of you go to film school after high school? You will see what I mean. Hell, just use iMovie and learn basic editing.

Reputation reeks of Ego feeding and protecting.Rollo Tomassi said:
When you have big balls, reputation follows not other way around.
You didn't expect this attack on your reputation, did you. Sucka. lol (joke, keep calm)

Your best chance for survival when dealing with a wild animal is to act unpredictably, in ways that the animal has never seen before. It confuses their thought processes and their instinct and causes them to refrain from acting.
This is not unlike, methinks, our dealing with woman.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
You should try to intimidate them, not to confuse them. They might confuse you with something acting weird but tasting good.Atom Smasher said:
But when you meet grizzly bear, you should lie on the ground and be very quiet. So that you don't disturb him too much while it eats you.
