"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.

One of my problems is that i am a confident person, but for some reason i become shy and quiet and it really does not make sense to me. At one moment I can be the life of the party, the other moment im quiet, almost frozen like. How do i work on this so i can be my normal self when it counts.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

If you're talking in/with a group of people, attempt to become the center of the conversation. For example, you tell a story related to what everyone is talking about, then all eyes are on you. If it's funny, everyone laughs. Then there's questions about it for you. You give details. Details which lead to other topics. Etc...all in all, just try to become the focus of the group of people talking..

Hey.If It's your second or third date(and only),if you run out of things to say,just look at her out of the corner of your eye with your face pointed another direction.Smile.Turn her way.Then make eye contact till she says something.Or you could laugh when there is an awkward silence.Just put your hand over your face and laugh lightly.She'll ask "what?" and say somethng like "You don't want to know" or "Nothing".She'll be persistant and want to know what it was so come up w/ a funny story or something to tell her after.That's all I have.
