"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.

A girl that was my best friend for a year and then became my gf is getting really annoying, b!tching alot, has become very shallow, slutty, high maitanace, big flirt, acts like a 12 yr old, and has a huge ego eventhough she aint nothing.

Anyways i want her gone, i already broke up the gf part with her a$$ but she still wants to be close friends, i dont want that crap. I ignored her but last nite she told me to atleast tell her why im doing all this.

Should i tell her all her negs...if so...how should i tell her in a way that fills her with guilt??
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I think the best solution is to be mature about it, give her a 'compliment sandwich' meaning you say something positive about her and THEN break out the negs, and to conclude it say another compliment.

For example,

"I really did enjoy our time together, you have been one of the few people in my life that made me happy; but lately you have been acting strange ever since you became my significant other (this is when you start putting in the negs), to put it bluntly (name) I think you are (list of negative connotations)....If you do not fix these problems soon, I am afraid I can't be your friend any more. And this is why I am reluctant to be your friend"

I hope this helps.....

Tell me how it goes if you apply these tactics,

Peace :rockon:

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

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.

I wonder if some of you guys read the articles and use the advice on acutal women. Don't compliment her or give her any reason why other than, "It's not working." Giving her an explanation is spineless, an AFC move. It's exactly like interrogating a girl on "where we stand" when you are together.

If you take the compliment sandwhich advice, she'll lose even more respect for you. Like I said, the only thing you should tell her is "It's not working." If she ask you why, just tell her "This is what I'm talking about" and walk off. Stay calm about it, don't raise your voice, and don't get sucked into conversation. Confusion in a girl's mind is your ally. Having long conversations about that stuff is girl sh*t.

And while we are at it, we can take a huge bite off a piece of meat and walk off grunting.

No Pappadapolis what I meant was he gives the compliment sandwiches and when she starts machine gun mouthing THEN ignore her. And he asked the BEST WAY to not make her FEEL GUILTY and you need to sugar-coat alot of Sh!t to make a women not feel guilty.

Any ways, the less you speak the more room there is for misinterpretation, the advice I gave was as strait forward as possible without MAKING HER FEEL GUILTY.

If she gets confused, wouldent she ask MORE questions? And therefore making the origional poster MORE ANGRY? Hrrm?

Pappadopolis,

What the hell is so wrong with giving a girl a simple explanation? I mean 30 seconds of your time explaining something pretty simple isn't a big deal at all.

Saying "this isn't working" is kind of immature and stupid if you ask me.

If a girl did that to you, you'd probably be pissed, and for good reason. She at least should get an explanation, even if she is an immature *****.

its ok he needs experience...pappa..when you say stuff like that to a girl you lower yourself and the girl will juss tell you "fvck off jerk" and never remember you again.

I want the girl to remember how i was the best, and that i always said whats on my mind, that shes missing out on a true alpha because her 18 yr old punk a$$ needs a lot of attention and thus will go to any extremes to get that attention and think its alright.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
