...gutted. 
"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.

USA are awful at soccer! I'm sorry but its true! Czech were 10 times the team they were. For the life of me, i cannot understand why FIFA positioned them fifth in the world rankings! In my humble opinion its a joke! Why didnt the 'young star' of america play in the team or did he just not make it!?? i forget his name but he's only 17 or so i think?!
Australia beat Japan 3-1 and we are all celebrating here, are Brazil still the top ranked team in the world, we have to play them next, but I am sure that, Ronaldo, as great as he is will get a couple of goals past our goalkeeper and they will win, but if the Aussies can keep it to a nil all draw then it will really be party time over here. :yes:

"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.

When you guys stop prancing round in tights and plastic calling it Football (its a disgrace!).....You may start to field a good team in the REAL game. I love the US but your sport sense is really crap....Baseball has to be the most boring game in the world....except golf i guess...
Bring cheerleaders to REAL football....Leave the rest of your sh!t and get into a proper sport. :rockon:
Well done to the Czechs for a good match. I see them and the argies as a dark horse.
Oh and before you start about the US doing well in 2002. You got the easiest possible route threw. Put you up against a team with abit of skill and your easy.
Ok ready to be flamed :moon:

I think Ghana will beat the sh!t out of the yanks!
Anyways so far they are the worst team in the World Cup. Even Trinidad-Tobago has a point.
Good thing though, some guys around here even mentioned usa between the favorites :crackup: :crackup: :crackup:

"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.

To be honest the people in the US couldn't really give a monkey's fanny for football (sorry, 'soccer'). So.. it seems any attempt to rib them about it doesn't really have much effect. Apparently something like 50% of USA don't even know the World Cup is on right now.
:O
I think the real reason for concern is our f***ing retarded manager (Sven). I mean, what is the guy thinking??
"Yeah, I'll play Crouch up front on his own!"
"Yeah, I'll take Michael Owen off after an hour!"
"Yeah, I'll take Theo Walcott along.. but he's not ready to play yet"
I mean, huh?? We are certainly not going to win if he carries on like this! Someone needs to shake some sense into him, and fast!

"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.
