"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.

she says its her collegue, should i believe her or not. because she is saying that she is crazy about me. what should i do?
 

"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.

Damn if I ever woke up to that message on my girlfriends phone, I'd be soo pissed.

I don't think just a friend would say "Hello honey" and I would know who my g/f's friends were and if I never knew of this guy I would start to wonder. I personally think she's fvcking with you man
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

dont forget the guy said "honey"



i might say that to a girl in a flirty sorda way just like girls will say stuff like "ttyl babe" even though they got BF and ****. I would not blow up over just this once incident. Just watch but do not act paranoid.

Friends: Do not allow this message to send you into a AFC frenzy....It really isn't that big a deal yet, and it shouldn't be a catalyst for you to turn it into a big a deal!!!

Put it down in her criminal record and continue to develop your game!!!!

anyone who thinks she is cheating because of that.. -keyboard jockey with no worldly experience..

she may very well be sucking bob off and coming home and kissing u on the lips..
BUT that message should not cause suspission..

BUT if you can't handle it and think she is cheating, go find yourself tom and suck him off, then kiss her on the lips.

an eye for an eye.
