"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 think its time i give credit where credit is due. I owe everyone who post on this site a thank you,because you have all helped me to improve my quality of life. I took these aspects from the site,how you present yourself,attitude,and conversation skills to heart.Not only has my dating life resurrected by 3 fold,but i recently scored my first job with these skills. I had a interview at raleys for a courtesy cleek(bagger im 17 just out of high school). Ever since reading this site and searching these forums i discovered how important it is to carry yourself in high regards and nothing else. I dressed as a normally would for the day,the day of my interview and i realized "holy shi+, i dont need to "dress up" for my interview,i already dress like this daily". I went to my interview and my now boss said five minutes into the interview "blinkwatt i like you,you look sharp,dress sharp, you seem excited about the job,its yours". I just wanted to thank all who have posted and helped me to improve my life.

you'll enjoy your job for 2mins until the apathy flows in, hey I'm smart, why am I bagging grocery with old dumb rejects who have failed in life. Those kind of jobs kill the spirit...

Congratulations on getting a job bagging people's groceries.
Reminds me of the Sprite commercial where the dude wins at a video game but didn't get a prize. Eh, I guess you had to be there...
