"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.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Problem you and people like you have is called narrow mindedness. Living inside a small space, a box. In other words idiocy. It's ok, soon, in a matter of weeks literally, there will be a second 9/11, nuke. (Obama was already briefed on eminent "Al Qaeda" attack, don't worry) Perhaps I'll see you on the streets, with you at the wrong end of my AK, lol. hahaha. That be funny.. Anyway, no harm intended, just don't get caught with your pants down.

"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.

Yes, do try to get it straight.apusislaya said:
"Statutory Rape" is a term of art that means any "rape" offense where the element of consent is eliminated due to minority. Someone under this age (which is NOT the "majority" age of 18 -- it usually falls somewhere between 13-16) cannot consent to sex -- therefore any type of sex with a minor is considered "rape" by operation of statute: hence the term "statutory rape."
You can be charged with statutory rape as a minor in juvenile court, so don't think you being under the age of 18 is going to save you. The only thing that changes is the likelihood of prosecution -- the closer in ages the two juveniles, the less likely prosecution occurs even if a crime is technically comimitted.
Also, for you pervs out there, many states criminalize ANY sexual contact (even certain types of touching over the clothes) with individuals under the age of 13 -- so for all you high school types out there, be wary when she says she's a freshman. Saw a case once where a 15 year old kid ended up being charged (but, ultimately, prosecution dropped) when a 12 year old girl (who was already going through puberty) basically seduced him at a party.
