"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 feel let down that that was not an Onion article

Sexy women being the operative term here.
A chubby girl in a bikini still makes the salami go south.
ermmmm.... I think you're totally missing the point. What's interesting to me is that naked (or mostly naked in this case) women lit up the same part of the brain as "tool use" does.Boilermaker said:
Kind of like I always say that boning a hot woman is like driving a Ferrari at 150mph. Interesting stuff... seems to say that the objectification of women is hard-wired into the male brain.
"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.

no I didn't miss the point I was pointing out the irrelevance of bikinis in this context.Zarky said:
Bikini has nothing to do with the objectification. On the other hand, if you are to discover the fact that we see women as objects; you really need to get bikinis out of the picture - say, with a control group of naked women.

Oh come on. Women only wear bikinis because it's too warm outside to wear regular clothing. What other reason could there be?
