"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.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Intersting stuff, as long as any newbies know not to overdo or overanalyze any of it.

For the newbies here: the only thing you want to focus on too much is making sure your own body language isnt signalling betaness, or closed off, or negativity. Dont sit there trying to analyze some chicks body language, any more than noticing whether she's very open to you, or closed off, and if she's closed off, just lighten the mood a little. Dont let it affect the interaction!

Its insteresting to know some of this stuff, but you cant get too caught up in it.


BTW, links to B and C are not working.

Yup, totally correct. For the average PUA, a lot of it is way overdoing things. Doesn't hurt to know the stuff to work your way through life though. Comes in very handy.

Fixed the links to B and C, hopefully. Thanks for the heads up!
