So, when that moment of silence hits in the middle of a conversation, what exactly do you guys say/do?
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.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
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.

:rockon: great advice.hyperactive said:When the conversation runs dry kiss her. Simple as that. If you have to work to keep the conversation going then you are not compatable as anything more than a lay.
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.
Dude, that's amazing...you just described my ex GF to a tee... I didn't realize that I couldn't hold a MEANINGFUL conversation with her until I was in too deep...hyperactive said:B. The kind who likes to chit chat about mundane things, how her day went, etc. She may be a decent listener, or may not. The conversation may go both ways or be one sided but there is a noticable lack of uncomfortable silences between you and her. This type of woman goes best with guys who are not that smart. Otherwise, if the guy is reasonably intellectual, he will have to suffer through alot of idle banter to get laid on a regular basis. These are the kind of women that do not get better with age, meaning the age of your relationship, not her age. As one begins to date her she may seem fun, for she is bubbly and optimistic. But as time goes on the excitement wears off and she starts to just become annoying.
The content of your conversation or story doesn't matter at all. Its only the presentation that's important, its how you actually talk that makes it entertaining. what you really have to do verbally is just to bull**** about anything you want. you know, I think its ok if you even talk about weather and politics, IF you can manage to do it in a playful way. ANYTHING works, as long as you make it interesting and colorful. and the important part in charming people isn't the content of what you say, its what you are indirectly communicating with your gestures and tone of voice. you want to appear as a cool and confident guy who knows what he's doing. that you can't talk about. no. that should be implied in HOW you present your bull****.space said:i need help making conversations, and storytelling. i have 0 storys to tell that that i think will keep people entertained, and i find it really hard to talk to people as i feel ive nothing interesting to talk about, only the simple boring stuff. because of this i find that i dont even attempt to talk to people anymore apart from my own friends.
how can i improve? i need huge help
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.
