"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 more thing OP:
everyone is saying you'll be fine, it will work out next time, etc..

But what would have happened if you had both passed on the green before watching the movie this last time?

Find out with her this weekend ! ;)
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

word, i smoke a lot of weed, and the biggest negative effect for me is; it just makes me okay with doing nothing. if i'm at home stoned, i'll stay home and be happy listening to music/drawing/reading/surfing the net/whatever. if i'm out stoned i'll be happy just sitting in a corner somewhere shooting the bull with friends. definately a game-killer for me, it just makes my comfort zone feel so damn. . .comfortable.

don't get me wrong, if i'm out hiking through the woods or chilling in a park i'll continue to toke. after hitting the bars or clubs, late night bowl smoking is cool too. hell, even if i meet a stony chick, a nice session could be a great rapport builder.

what i'm getting at is, if you have something that you want or need to get accomplished, don't smoke. if youve got nothing but time and sunshine, go ahead, take a few rips.

Yes weed can certainly ruin your game, the other night I smoked went to the grocery store and this chick is walking down the isle right next to me and says something to her friend,
HB:"Wow I guess we can tell who the fat roommate is I have nothing but junk in here"
Me:*Thinking in my head* This is perfect say something
Me: A good thirty seconds later with them like 35-40 feet past me at this point....Yelling down the isle "You have skim milk."
Her and her friends turn around probably creeped out as hell, plus I had my hood up, which probably looked raperesque, my friend with me (not high) was like you are so retarded.

I go to check out and I'm flirting with the cute checkout girl, and she's like well I'm about to get off right now and I've got nothing to do tonight what are you about to do? And dumb as hell I just said going home to eat. Then I proceeded to make a joke about the community college in the area...which she didn't respond well. My roommate pointed out to me the fact that she is the checkout girl at ACME and probably goes there :kick: :kick:

We actually hung out this past weekend sans weed. It went great, lots of kino and flirting. I could have taken it to the next level, but I had to take a wicked sh1t and didn't want to go nuclear in her bathroom.

My own body ****blocked me. :(
 

"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.

Tried weed twice.
Just makes me paranoid and feel like I'm being judged by everyone.

Therefore, I never smoked weed again. HATE IT
