"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.

1 song to pump you up. What would it be?

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

"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.

Megalomaniac by KMFDM really brings out the inner assh*le in me. Do not dare to listen to it with pathetic laptop speakers or meek iPod earbuds.

I've noticed that sh*t like Linkin Park, Fort Minor, and most rock are the musical choice of frustrated beta schlubs. I should know; I used to be one, and that music had a certain appeal. Now it reeks of sexual frustration and unwarranted aggression caused by lack of direction and purpose in life. And hip-hop (mostly, with few exceptions) reeks of ignorant self-destructive materialism that makes me despise and yet pity those who listen to it.

Or maybe I'm just an assh*le. Whatever.

Lol..honestly I find rap being too goofy/displayin you have a chip on your shoulder but there are occasional songs that catch my eye (or ear whatever.) because of its lyrics. Such as the first one, the chorus reminds me of the shvt I've been through and how it would go to waste if I give up now.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I personally find it extremley stupid and out of place when people say things like "This band is for beta's. Sports are for alphas." etc. Gross generalizations are for the beta minded, if anything.

Not sure who Fort Minor is(I'd prob know some songs) but I actually like Linkin Park a lot, the older stuff mainly. If you were looking for a misplaced aggression song, look no further than Limp Bizkit "Break Stuff."

Well, I absolutely love the original song, so it was more of a tease for me lol. And I don't like the over-DJed type sound so much. I know that is the point of that game, but that's not something I would just listen to.

"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.

Pretty much anything by Queen puts me in the mood to knock down doors and go pick up chicks.

Kinda ironic really.
 

"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.
