"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.

i drink a lot of coffee and i was wondering if anyone has used whitening products to get rid of yellow tint coffee drinking makes your teeth?

i think Crest whitening trays would really help us coffee drinkers out! i work with the people at Crest and the whitening trays whiten your teeth quickly and it''s only about 30 minutes a day.

you can still drink coffee after and before whenever you and still get whiter teeth, anyone think about whitening your teeth or using Crest?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I've done it and it works well. I got a free whitening kit from my dentist for signing up with them. It's worth it and can make a difference for you. Give it a shot. :)

Hi,
I drink way too much coffee and started to get stressed out when they weren't as white anymore. I was going to go the dentist to have him do it but it was ridiculously expensive. So I looked for forever and I finally found a kit that's just like the one the dentist uses with the mold and injection. It works amazing and fast, I could see the difference after the first one ! I'm glad I didn't have the dentist do it. I got it on sale too because they were having a trial where you get to try it for the cost of shipping for like 6 bucks here's the website.

Just to chime in. I used CREST Whitestrips kind of expensive, but they work great. Cut out coffee and coke too. I also talked to a dentist she claims that strips are just as good pro whitening.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I don't know if the whitening products sold on the internet actually work, (no firsthand experience) but I'd say *don't* buy any of the teeth whitening products you see advertised on the internet as they get you onto a rebill program where it's very difficult (if not impossible) to cancel.

You will get charged and sent product monthly - for an example, the website posted by ignatiusmael is an affiliate site which sells a rebill product.

In fact I wouldn't be surprised if this whole thread has simply been created to send traffic through some guys affiliate link.

if you want white teeth go to your dentist and get the bleaching gel. this is the only stuff that is any good. them cheap whitening methods you buy at the drugs store and are sold over the counter suck.

Did you even read it? If you want to erode your teeth you can use vinegar or other cheap acids as mouthwash.



The best way to whiten teeth is to use some form of peroxides. This is what dentists use to bleach your teeth along with some UV light or laser to speed up the process.
yeah i read it, it said to not use it too often.

No they don't. I haven't finished my batch of Crest White Strips Advanced seal but after 10 treatments (there are 14 total) I have noticed a nice improvement. It's not black and white, but definitely a couple shades whiter and I haven't even finished yet, so to me that's worth it.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Or at all. Acids erode tooth enamel.
right, but the acid is in the strawberries. how much stronger could it be then the use-at-home products?

however, I guess the fact that its mixed with baking soda probably multiplies it quite a bit ;) anyways. just threw that link out there cause i heard of using it once. I'm not condoning it, not promoting it, just posted a link ;)

Teeth whitening is great, but the problem is if your teeth are stained from drinking coffee, if you keep drinking coffee they're not going to stay white very long. Tea is bad or worse.

I've also read somewhere that if you overdo the peroxides they can make your teeth darker, which is not good. I think they said you're not supposed to use them more than every six months, but I can't remember for sure.
