"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.

So I find myself passing alot of girls all the time. I was thinking right before I pass them I start walking backwards at the same pace so were almost side by side and continue to walk a little bit with them backwards. Then do an approach. What do you think? Too Cheesy??
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I reckon it's a good idea, a woman would probably be impressed by the originality and sheer audacity of it, providing you pull it off with confidence and style. Let us know how you get on.

Ps - try not to walk backwards into a lamp post!

However, I wouldn't try this one out - for one thing, you're going to look pretty strange walking backwards while trying to hit on a girl (as in scary strange, not "cute" strange). Another issue would be how idiotic you'd look if you ran into an inanimate object or another person. If you want to open a girl, get her attention and start your conversation - without walking backwards.

Im going to try this when i get back to work. I am not going to do it for two long, its not like i would walk an entire hallway like that. I am sure at some point if the girl is interested she will stop and chat.

I'm confused by the walking backward. Would you seriously be walking backwards while talking to her? That seems a bit odd.

this was mentioned in one of david d's programs. i can't remember which one though. i'm sure this will work if done well since it was discussed by david d. himself.

Dude!? What happens if you fall over backwards, hit the back of your skull on the pavement, and end up a quadrapeligic the rest of your life? Not worth the risk, man. Weigh the numbers... Girl with 10% chance of liking you, or life of unhindered mobility. Dude, are you stupid!? Pick the girl! :rolleyes:
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

What I would do is wait untill im about to pass, then start walking backwards while im looking at her. as soon as she makes eye contact then start a conv. at that point i will stop walking all together

Just kind of messing around with her in a joking way before you start talking

I don't like this idea. It just seems slightly AFC to me, like you're tagging along, trying to get a girl's attention. It also sounds like a "gimmick". I'm not big on gimmicks, pick up lines, and things of that sort.

But you never know. Try it and report back.
