"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.

A Good Haircut?

"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 also sport the T2 Schwarzenegger, just have them take a razor guard up the side of your head and scissor cut on the top. It's simple and it looks great without maintenance or pretense.

Try and see if you can see this link:

This is the three-year old pic, but everything is roughly similar.


Short and sweet. 1/8" on the beard and lower burns, 1/4" on the sides and upper burns, 3/8" on top. You cut it yourself, and it always looks crisp and neat. You'll need a cheap set of clippers, a cheap plastic barbers comb, and a barbers scissors. Watch a youtube video on blending and it shouldn't be to hard to pick up on. When in doubt, cut less, evaluate, then cut more if needed. My hair naturally spikes out until gravity weighs it down, sort of like a static field. But if you need it, a bit of gel would do wonders.

While I would advise rocking a sweet ass beard, it is a personal choice that can be made only by you. I have a boxy, squarish mesomorph head structure, so I grew it to round out my leno chin and political cartoon esque jawline. Without it, I look like Stan from American Dad. It works for me, so I rock it. Besides, chicks dig a rugged beard as long as it's clean looking.
