"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.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I dunno. I usually turn it around on the girl.
"No, tell me something interesting about YOU!"

Telling her something interesting about yourself works better than snappy lines any day.

"Let me get your phone number, so I can ask an internet forum. I will call you back with an answer" :D

I don't think there is a "right answer" for a question like that. There is tons of stuff, BS included that you could have said:

Im a pole dancer on the weekend
Im good at math; 1+1=7
Im good at math; 1+1=2


Seriously, I think almost anything would have been better then saying, I don't know or saying something overtly sexual or creepy

Haha I always ask girls stuff like this

"Say something interesting"
"Tell me something about yourself that'll make me hate your guts"
"Say something not boring"

Seriously, though, if she's asking you just make some dumb sh!t up.

"Well when I was 5 I lost my leg in a terrible base jumping accident. It's mostly grown back, though, you can barely tell anymore."

As quoted in Oceans 12:

"Look. It's not in my nature to be mysterious, but I can't talk about it, and I can't talk about why."

Bold, straight faced and confident, then change the subject to her.
 

"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.
