"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.

Aight fellas, theres this kid in my "group" who is messing up my game, and I try not to let it bother me but ****, this kid is annoying. Was at a party a few days ago and I was talking to many girls... 2 in particular, and this AFC ***** comes around and starts flirting... he gets their SN's and starts IMing immediately(he still does AOL, not phone). one girl I was talking to was like "wow he's such a big flirt, its soo annoying", dude literally goes around and talks and kino's everygirl... he gets by on his good looks but he is annoying to a lot of them. anyway one girl then explained to his face that "your pathetic". Anyway, so I go to his house today, walk in and see him IMing one of the girls I was talking to(I could care less) but then he says "hey, your girlfriend from the party doesn't like you anymore" I say "yea, whose my G/f" he says "XXX, she likes me now". I KNOW this Mother****er was saying **** to her about me... whatever. My question is, do I confront this ***** or just lay low and let him try and mess up my game. He's done this on 3 girls now, and at first I said good for him, but damn, ****blockers get annoying.

Peace homies, sorry about the grammar and the rambling, its late and stuff a nd im typing in the dark.

thanks

"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.

The mature thing to do would be to confront him openly about it. If he is saying things behind your back you need to confront him infact.

If he can't say it to your face then he doesn't have the balls to back up what he is trying to accomplish anyways and in that case I wouldn't wory about it or him.
