"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.

That new movie coming out along with that "Dear John" sh1t is sure to get the girls wet for this Valentine's Day. I personally have nothing planned, but my friend has ended up asking out his oneitis for Valentine's Day. NOT. GOOD. I believe that this V-Day will be a time for many women to abuse their powers within relationships. That is why it is essential for everyone here and men in general to stay alert and be aware. They are expecting something big from us. Are we ready to take the challenge?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

This is exactly why I haven't told the woman I'm currently in a LTR with any details about Valentine's Day. Thank god she's easy to please.

If you're doing something on V-day guys...keep it simple. You shouldn't need to be the one impressing her.

I was wondering about this. I've gone on three dates with this girl and we have gotten pretty physical (no sex yet)....But I was trying to figure out if we should do something on V-Day. I'm pretty sure she is into me. I was thinking I might invite her over and cook a meal with her, but then I don't know if this is a good idea. Any thoughts?

I went to see Dear John, because my friends wife wanted to go and they were visiting from out of town. The movie blowed!! It was awful. The best part was when he comes back from afghanistan and finds out that the girl married some other dude and some lady in the audience yelled "Oh no she didn't" LOL After that everyone in the theater was just ripping on the movie and making sarcastic comments, because it was so awful. Even my friends wife admitted it was awful. Spare yourselves.

I vote keep it simple. I'm hopefully hanging out with someone I'm into this weekend, if I can get ahold of her.

Ladies pay attention to details so keep it simple and they'll take notice.

They might even be happy by just being with the person they are interested in. No chick really wants to be alone on V-day.
 

"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.
