"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.

Ive been using this routine a while. It seems invisible. You follow this and your chances are going to be greatly increased. You need to have a friend with you and start off right next to the set you want to open

-(standing close,really close, to the set talking to my friend) Wtf i just went to the bathroom and these two girls were all up on me and just asked me for some drugs (courtesy of Cajun).

-Then immediatley have your shoulder facing the set and open, say do I look like a drug dealer? Theyll be like yes or no or you look like you atleast smoke weed or whatever they say.

-say Omg i like this girl already to your target regardless of what they say


-dont ask them for their name (too much interest)

-start a little bs convo and they will eventually ask your name.

-when they ask shake their hand and say wow your hands are cold you got bad blood circulation (courtesy of cajun) theyll laugh and do whatever.

-bs a little bit more

-find a piece of clothing on them (shoes, shirt whatever) that looks like a little kid might be able to wear. Then say hey where did you get xxxxx theyll tell and reply by saying "its kind of funny i got a cousin his daughter is 10 years old and she has the same thing" -girls will always laugh

-after all that you should get ioi's and kino

-act normal for a while bs some more

-later on say "you know what my first impression of you was that you were a little dorky. But i guess my impression was wrong you seem like youre cool."

-then number close and your done.

I do this and it never fails. i get the same reactions all the time but the time it takes might be up to an hour cause you need to make it seem like youve built rapport
 

"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.

I've heard worse man, I can see that working. Congrats if it's worked for you.
 

"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.
