"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.

Ok the hottest woman at the house party on friday who i number closed but she may have semi fake numbered me by giving me 1 digit out number at 1st but wasn't sure cos she was so tipsy.

anyway i called her sunday evening, no pick up, i called her again today and she hadn't saved my number but answered, i go straight into pick up mode knowing i needed to raise her interest. i did.

anyway after talking for 5mins she says 'can u call me back at 8.30 if you're free' i go 'i cant im busy im in town i just wanted to make a quick call to arrange a drink with you.' then i say 'hows tomorrow at 8pm at so and so place' however she didn't know where the place was so i was spending the next 2 mins explaining where we were meeting.

but then i got tested again, she said 'can we make it 8.30pm instead just to be on the safe side?' i said 'ok' should i have said 'make it 8.45pm'?

then 10mins later she texts me to apologise for her confused demeanour 'hey big weezy, sorry for my confused demeanour (on both counts!) Ha - if it is ok with you, please could we meet on friday after my exam?' then 1 min later i get another text saying 'or thursday if friday is inconvenient - i'm free aaaallll day (apart from study for my exam)'

she sent this at 8pm i responded 40mins later at 8.40pm 'yeah i've got plans friday, so thursday is better. meet me at so and so train station at 8pm thursday. see you then.'

i know i was being tested but did i do ok? should i have waited longer before i responded to her time test? maybe i should have negged her for cancelling the time straight away, i feel like i supplicated by agreeing to her change of time twice (once for her saying 8.30pm) and me agreeing to a change of day. thanksfully she offered 2 days so i could say i was busy on 1 of them but that at least shows you she has higher interest.

I haven't got a text from her back yet which is bad cos she said she was free all day thursday meaning she wanted to meet in the day possibly but i want her at night where i create a romantic mood but if she has an exam friday i shouldn't be surprised if i get another test and she cancels to revise for exams?
 

"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.

I think you're over analyzing but as long as she shows up and you show her a good time, it's all good, man. :cool:
This guy's a freak.

He needs our approval on everything. Next post topic will be "Should I wipe my arse back-to-front or front-to-back?"

Do you think he goes onto other message boards asking people if he did a good job on topics he posted here?

Last time I checked this was a discussion forum and have you ever considered the OP may lack confidence and experience and needs some direction? This is where you become the better MAN and politely send him a PM if you disapprove of his posts instead of bashing the poor guy openly. You have the power not to open any post with his name showing it is his post. It is guys like you that take away from this forum. Be a brother DJ instead of your current path.
