"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.

Weird question for people in Texas

For anyone in Texas, does anyone know any steak places that have giant steaks that you can eat in an hour to have it free?

I've always wanted to try that out and see how well I can do. I'm skinny, but can eat...I could be the next Koyboyashi! :p
 

"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.

I remember going to one of those before, on my way to Philmont. I was only 12 or so at the time so I can't remember the name, but I'm pretty sure a Texan can probably give you some good advice. A word to the wise, be careful - if you can't eat that whole 64oz or whatever size they cut in that time frame, you end up paying for it! You might want to practice by buying a few cheap steaks from your grocery store and scarfing them down...

If you have seen me eat, you will know that the 64 in an hour is NOT a problem. Just ask my girl. :p ;)

So do you. Along with enough salt for the pretzel factory. :p

But, we manage to keep the weight off each other. :D ;)
 

"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.

Yeah no joke...

Just look for a billboard along the highway, there should be plenty.

Just don't get over your head eternal. 64 oz in an hour is harder than it sounds. Plus thats one expensive bill if you can't get it.
 

"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.

Trust me man, I never underestimate myself...Besides, the bill is motivation. ;)

I'll invite you all out there when I do it.
