"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 read everything....once in a while...
I get "roasted" in a weird text ..

But I'm actually a nice guy with a good family and I made good investments, so I work when I want.

You guys have to be nice.
Maybe I'm too sensitive...my brothers clown on me for being too sensitive...but I thought this was a forum for therapy, talking about issues.
I know I'm the sensitive brother in my family....but that's a good quality.
My other brother is a closed book...
I would rather live sharing my faults, instead of living like an old man, never sharing his thoughts
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

...for me it's difficult to "connect"
I was military, amputating legs...cutting people open...daily...8 hours a day... sometimes double shift ..just blood and bodies open.
So I just wanted to go home and listen to music, or jump rope, alone...so girls were weirded out by my habits...to want to be left alone after work



I'm sure you all have stressful jobs and just want to relax ...
It's just different

If a great many individuals who aren't in cahoots with one another in some way are regulalry observing that you stink, chances are high that your ass could benefit from a washing, and that your current deodorant is weak
