"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.

when start getting a good vibe on girls and they become interested for some reason seem to lose some when I try to get her to pronounce my name corrently
how would i make it so that she doesn't lose any attration or respect for me just for my name??? (not that I really care if she does or doesn't like my name):eek:
 

"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.

Just make up a cool nick name for yourself. If you can incorporate your name, great. If not, it's fodder for good c/f conversation.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

If you watched the recent pink panther movie you could repeat it back to them totally different each time until they catch up that you're playing with them.Or as mentioned, my name is X but my friends call me <insert cool and weird nickname> if she uses the nick tell her you're not friends so she can't call you that yet (in an joking manner naturally).

Everywhere you want to be.... I'm like a Visa card
What if the girl has a name you can't pronounce? I had that happen to me once. I know for sure that I can't spell it, but it started with an X. So, everyone just called her X. Usually I'd just be like "Hey girl!", so I could avoid it all together. She was really hott too, but had a bf and stuff, so meh.

Ya, I had a friend named Mohammed who just went by "Mo." Just shorten your name to something short and catchy.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
