Rules that I had to learn,for social conventions. They didn't come natural. You likely don;t need them, but why not
1) people love to talk about themselves and all their stuff. Especially normies, especially women. Pretend you're a secret agent. You want to give away as little of you and yours as you can. You want to learn as much as possible. That's your motivation. Wait to be talked to, other than Hi, I'm anon, nice to meet you. Asked anything? Polite, short answers. Pretend its that weird aunt you have to be polite to. Always get it back to them. Let them pick topics. Ask further questions, as if interested, on their topics. Light superficial compliments or comments. As I said, pretend you are undercover, trying to get intel on them. It works. A few smiles, nods of the head. A few quick bland comments and compliments... and always back to them. It makes you not shy, and you will *seem* like some great conversationalist. While saying and doing practically nothing. maintain distance from them. No PUA touching of the arms, etc. never, ever, even if pestered? Speak on religion or politics or anything like that. Nothing beyond... oh, I think politics is boring. Oh, I'm not big on religion. Talking stick? Back... to... them. This is what I do with all the office women at work. What does it achieve? You're seeming to be quiet and polite. Anoni s a great conversationalist! Because you just let them do all the gabbing and conversation topics. Always ask polite questions, to further them talking about their interests. Sadly, you're going to have to read a girl book, I think. I doubt Meditations:Aurelius is going to go over here? Just a hunch. o be non-threatening? You already have a GF. (whether you do or not). Even if you are looking for a GF? Taken men, is called pre-selection. Another woman is invested in anon, he must have quality. Asked? Invent one. Describe some cousin they'll never meet, a friend's sister? Anything. Pretend there is a rabid HR over this "job". Women are some kind of protected wildlife, you're not allowed to touch them anything else. Smiles, nods, gestures... and always, always... back them them, and pretending to be interested in their topics. Your male topics? Not their thing. When finally pressed? Invent. Canoe fishing trips, with childhood best friend. I'm telling you? This works, at my workplaces. I don't say or give away shit... I'm supposedly some great polite conversationalist. If what I'm describing seems asinine? It is! But? Women. Treat the inevitable girl book, as if it were research, or a school assignment. When asked to discuss the book? Again, its inevitable. Bland take, let them all "explain" it to you. Do all this religiously? You will have women touching your arm, etc. Anything they mention? Ask for your "update". (women love this interest). Hey, fem-anon. How's that situation with your aunt and mum going? Get that wrapped up yet?

Is it weird if I join a book club as the only guy? There’s like 10-15 girls every meeting aged 20-30 and it’s primarily ya fantasy and feminist…
