"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Just came across this film last night, does anyone remember it? It's from 1981, I think I may have rented it years ago but anyway... William Hurt was mesmerizing, I think this may have been his BEST performance!

You guys talk about cold approach? Here's a clip of him (as Ned Racine) initially approaching Matty Walker (Kathleen Turner)... I think his delivery is what makes it (and him) so mesmerizing though. You be the judge....

"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.

Not too shabby, except for offering to buy her something

I'm not saying "Don't buy her something small early on". Offering to do so verbally often comes across weak and desperate

Sometimes it can but certainly not in the way Ned did. And the way he sugued into buying the out-of-town husband a drink too and the rest of it?

Perfect! I watched the movie three times already since renting it two nights ago. Lol

I may have to purchase it. It was that good and I've been getting bored with most films lately.

It's a remake of a old film noir Double Indemnity which I've never seen and will have to stream that one too.

William Hurt was mesmerizing though, what a great actor. I'm gonna have to check out his other films from the 80s.

"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.

This type of suave banter in my opinion would rarely work in the real world. From experience you need a real friendly, friendship brotherly type of vibe as if you knew her and ‘ been there, done that’ with her. Just act real comfortable and the sparks are going to fly.
