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.
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.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
I hope she told you this BEFORE you took her somewhere expensive and/or before you both got super expensive orders.Robyn923b said:"I am very traditional, so you take care of the bill"
hahahaha ! "It was thursday." Thats hilarious.Zarky said:First line on first date: "Hi, I'm ______, I have generalized anxiety disorder."
----------
After banging some chick on first date: "That was the 7th d*ck I've sucked this week." It was Thursday.
----------
On a 2nd date with a chick I hadn't banged yet. We were supposed to go down to the San Diego Wild Animal Park. I came over to her place and we started making out, then started having sex. She was on her back with my d*ck inside her when she said:
Her: "This isn't the wild animal park."
Me: "Oh yes it is."
Her: "Good point."
Damn there are so many more that come to my mind at random times but I can't remember them when I try...
Luckily, it was a $10 plate and I was not hungry. I paid for it, ate half, and never called her again.devilkingx2 said:I hope she told you this BEFORE you took her somewhere expensive and/or before you both got super expensive orders.
Haha, this would have frozen her. I might just use it next time I run into one of these women.Espi said:My response: "Awesome! You're gonna look great in my kitchen, walking around barefoot and pregnant."
^I think we have a winner here so far.Bill the Great said:Not to me, but to a friend of mine.
After a first date they go back to her place. She excuses herself, and moments later comes back into the room completely naked and sits down next to him. When he goes to make a move, she says she is not that kind of girl and freaks out, yelling at him and kicking him out of her place. Come to find out that she apparently has a habit of doing this with all the guys she goes out with.
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.
Maybe she was just a nudist lol.Mike32ct said:^I think we have a winner here so far.

ok good, I was imagining she did this at red lobster after you each ordered $35 meals.Robyn923b said:Luckily, it was a $10 plate and I was not hungry. I paid for it, ate half, and never called her again.

BeDJ said:30 minutes into the first date, she says 'I have IBS.' I did not know what it was at the time and just generically responded, 'It's pretty common, I don't think you have anything to worry about.' Later, I found out it was an acronym for Irritable Bowel Syndrome. If I knew what it was at the time, my response would have been 'No anal?"
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.
