"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.

If you sit down and view the show, what do you see?

I watched a preview to the show while surfing through the channels and I my jaw dropped when I saw 'her' riding in a carriage (with a big a$$ grin mind you), while all the guys ran behind her trying to catch up? Are you kidding me? Can someone tell me what these monkeys trying to win her affection are thinking?

I guess it's o.k. because as long as their are morons like that in this world, the rest of us that have 'seen the light' look allot better.
 

"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.

Yeah, this show is pretty pathetic. Just more proof as to what guys will do to get some *****.

But also don't forget it's a way for most of them to get on TV too. Many are probably looking to break into modeling or acting.

Yeah, that's true. Unfortunately, it just proves the point Mikey Royal tries to make in his book when he says 'the price of the human soul is cheap'.

How about the guy who fainted on the first episode. He was overwhelmed by her picking him on the first week when almost everyone moves on.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

The guys on the bachlorette (from what I've seen in the previews) is filled with above average looking men. I think the show you are thinking of was called something like average joe and it was on Fox a few months ago.
