"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I'll try to spare my thoughts on what I think about women who sit there alone at the bar scrolling with their finger while fixated on their smart phone (in a drone like manner) and smiling frequently as if their particular random 1000 friends are somehow different than their friend's random 1000 friends.

Instead, I'll simply ask whether you do this yourself (hint: don't).

So 37 views, and only 8 said No. That means SS is now 78% female.

What difference does it make? I'm a man, if I want to have a drink, relax, and look at wtf-ever I want on my phone then thats what I will do. I won't do it all night, and will make good with the reasons why I went out that night. This is just a stupid topic and question, grow up buddy
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

If you're a man you won't stroke your phone like a fat, lonely girl. Did you and your boyfriend vote yes? Still in the 13 percentile.

Again what difference does it make to you what other people do with their time? You probably throw shade on everything you don't agree with. You wreak of bitterness, no control, and a over abudance of self doubt.

I see there's been a uproar of bitter posts recently. The majority to view didn't vote because the topic is silly.

"Ooooo, look at him looking at his phone at the bar instead of participating in real life like a real man!"

Its 2016 in the world of narcissism and smartphones. Most people are checking their phones regularly.

Sounds like you're shaming other men there.....

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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.

No more keyboard jockeying . Action is the place.
No, I like socializing. However what a great in it is when a girl is scrolling on IG or Facebook. I just go up to them, and touch their phone so it ****s them all up. Never had a bad interaction doing that and they always have a good laugh too.
