"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.

Yeah so since ive been on this site ive been using negs alot on HBs. Since im new to it sometimes i think i step over the line to insult. I was just talking to this HB8 and the neg i used was, "this girl whose pretty cool but smells kinda funny..." haha i thought it was funny at least. Any thoughts?

BTW, she doesnt smell really
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

It's all about the context - what is the mood, what tone of voice/body language/eye language do you deliver it in, what is her attitude towards you, what do you do directly after the neg? Also - it needs to be funny, to me without knowing the context that neg is kinda weird :S
