"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.

The average American has had 7.2 sexual partners in their life...

Someone was considered "too promiscuous" if they have had more than 15.2 partners according to women or 14 according to men.

Guess I'm really, really promisuous...

In the end what does it matter in the grand scheme of life?

getting laid x number of times or experiencing a multitude of different things?

if you spend your life worried about your number of conquests and to keep going you're missing out on so much more.

Merely commenting on an article I came across. I have no time to worry about that...I spend my life trying to write the perfect line of code.
 

"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.

I read those numbers at first as 152 and 14. I was thinking, hmmmm, ten times the number of partners for a woman on average....that sounds about right.

When looking at this data; Remember tho, with women, they only count the ones they actually enjoyed. So if a woman says 7.2 partners her real count is 72. Their illogical organ in their head they call a brain can somehow null the ones they didn't like from the count. And On top of that, the top few they REALLY didn't like they will call "rape"

Yeah, I figured women will count down but it will balance out because men will count up...a dude who has banged 5 chicks will say 10 or 12
