"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.

According to researchers, women with bpd, actually have some positive characteristics, but i didn't expect that "loyalty" would be one of them
 

"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.

Psychopathy similarly has it's "positives": When one is heavily amoral/consiceneless, it's remarkably easy to

-Achieve considerable financial success, by deceiving your colleagues and clients, whitewash yourself as the victim, when folks object to the way you've dealt with them

And

-Win quite a few commendations from your government, after murdering random Nabibs and Eduardos by the bundle, while performing covert operations in 3rd World armpits around the planet

Whether or not this stuff is honorable or especially beneficial is also questionable

I had a live in girlfriend that was borderline, and very loyal. I imagine it's their fear of abandonment that keeps them loyal.

Poor girl got married to a nice, older guy that just doesn't do it for her. 10yrs later she still reaches out and sends me songs that remind her of us.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
