"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.

I do give Pook tremendous credit. In terms of rapidly deprogramming the modern feminized AFC, his posts are outstanding. Back in the day I read Pook's posts more than any other single user on this forum.
 

"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.

He made legend status BEFORE he ditched the site. For him to catch on that quick from his life experiences and document it here that early on is what awoke this community. Mad props. Fair winds brother.

I was originally here either just before or right after Pook showed up. He was not the only one giving GREAT advice: Peak, Anti-Dump, and other names I don't recall but would if I saw them. Ah, memories, those were the days.
