"I need to spend time with my kids."
"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
U should never be hitting up a woman with a kid

I'll take some exact ones I remember...
1. "Maybe we'll get back together. Maybe we won't."
<That was 11 years ago, and she hasn't called back yet. I should check my voicemail again to be sure lol.>
2. "I want to get a bunch of people to go to xyz."
<I don't want to be alone with you.>
3. "I'm dating now."
<Does that mean I'm not included?>
4. "Sorry I'm kind of tired tonight. A friend came over last night, and we talked all night. But umm umm we slept in different rooms."
<Can't make this up.>
5. "You're everything I ever wanted in a guy, but I like bad boys."
<She's only 35. She'll grow out of it in 45+ years and be ready for a "beta provider" to help raise her great-grandkids lol.>

I've gotten the "maybe we can be together in the future" line before and the "you're perfect, just not for me".
Both classics. Both tell me I'm never seeing/speaking to this girl again unless I miraculously bump into them in public.
Moving on*
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

So true. I think a starving lion would give up its kill before a woman between 18 and 45 would give up her precious phone. She might miss a like for her latest selfie by an orbiter.
"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.

"I love you but the timing for me just isnt right".
The same chick texted me 2 months later and asked to meet up for a drink. My response:
"I loved you but the timing for me isnt right. I'm seeing someone else. You're too late".

This sh*t again? It doesn't matter if your plates have kids.
Who said anything about dating?
Oh god don't get me started with this one.
"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.
this!, i'm all up for never get close to a woman with kids, but if she want to open her legs to you and she is still hot, go for it, just don't fall for her or ever take her serious
