"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.

It seems like a year ago (when I turned 20) my body really started to mature and weightlifting seemed to bring these almost electrical kind of jolts going through my body. Does anyone here know what I'm talking about? I could just feel the adrenaline rush, almost like a roller coaster.
 

"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.

Its called testosterone. When you do bigger lifts, such as the main 3. Squat, dead, and bench. Your body will actually produce and release more of it.

Possible side effects are increased sex drive (yes this is a bad, it can get nutty when you are already have a penis and you know how much trouble that can get us into. Just to increase it. I would jerk off 2 times a day and still have sex with the gf)

Body Acne or increased acne.

Keep lifting it pays off more then anything on this site could ever teach or give you.

Looking back at my high school days and whatnot, it seems like my body was slower to mature than my peers. Just last year I started getting muscle. I think I have low testosterone, and certainly the lifting helps.
