So I like wearing shirts sometimes without anything on them. I was thinking of getting a purple shirt with out anything on it. So I would like some opinions, what do you think?
"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.
would you wear a purple shirt?

"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.

Purple looks pretty aweful on most people, especially a big block of purple. Purple-based pattern? Much better. I have a pretty sweet-looking shirt that has patterns with several shades of purples, and a tiny bit of other colours for effect, and I keep getting good comments about it. I doubt I'd get many good comments over a big block of purple draped over me.
That being said, if you're comfortable wearing a purple shirt, go for it. Heck, if you feel like wearing pink, go for it. ("It's not pink, it's fierce SALMON!") It's not the colour (as long as the colour suits you), it's how you wear it.

Purple shirt, dark jeans and a grey sportcoat.

Gray sportscoat? I dunno. I'd go with black pinstriped, myself, but grey works, too, I guess. It definately works with dark jeans, though.
"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 don't know about purple shirt but I wear a purple tie to work a lot and girls love it.

Touché. I guess I had my dad's ugly old light gray sportscoat in mind.Francisco d'Anconia said:Charcoal grey, something with a bit of texture.
