"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

So what do you guys think about this.

After talking to a girl for a bit at the bar and she's giving me IOI's I usually say something like this.

Looking in to their eyes and telling them "Your doing a shot with me!"

They usually say something along the lines of

"uhh ok(always seem caught off guard), what are we doing?"

Me: "Don't worry about it you'll like it"

It's always a shot I like, (Crown, Patron, Liquid Cocaine, Blow Job(It's a fun shot to do with girls and opens up the doors for talking dirty)) if they don't like it when they find out what it is, I do their shot and next them(and they come back later).

People always say not to buy a girl a drink, and I think this works because I'm keeping the power and doing a shot of some thing I like because I want to do a shot and she's along for the ride. What do you think?
 

"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.

umm, I just don't like spending money on other people, or buying attention. Maybe you can get some other people's opinions, tho.

I guess if you bought the first round, maybe she would be inclined to buy another. (I mean, what's the point of just one shot anyway?)

Eh, I'm not sure. I don't get the power thing, what exactly does it get you? And what if she refuses?

I think youre crazy, but appearently youre a high roller. Buy a girl a drink doesnt give you any power, i think it takes it away...but what do i know.

Resist the matriarchy, man! Don't give someone a gift just because she is female!
 

"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.

I stopped reading when you said you were buying shots at a bar.

I don't do this all the time, and it was after we where talking for about half an hour. I wasn't buying her a shot so she would of approve of me I was buying her one because I wanted one and she was there. it's all about what frame your doing it in.

Anyways in the end I did get her number(real one), and whe'er hanging out later.

There is a right way and a wrong way to buy a drink, give a complement, and so on. If you do it acting needy, thats the wrong way. When I baught her that shot I could of careed less if she liked me. I did it because I like to do shots with other people and she was already there.

As for being a high roller.. no, just work at the bar and get cheep drinks.

Does this work for you?

In other words, what's your success rate with it? Do you score digits normally or do you end up empty-handed?

You need to just pay attention to the field results here. Most guys around here will instinctively belt out "OMG DON'T BUY GIRLS DRINKS EVER" but there is a time and a place for everything. Govern your actions by the success rate.

I never used it as part of a pick up. I just decided that right then and there where doing shots.

Oh BTY most a girl will say "OK, what are we going to do". KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO! Don't say "well what ever you want"! That's indecisive. Tell her what you two are doing, and if she objects i.e. to strong, hates whisky, what ever, and she Say's "well let's do such n such", you have two choices, switch it to something else you want (not what she suggested) or leave her out.
 

"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.

Buying a girl a drink proves you're a speed bag, unless you've spent alot of time with her and you know she's not mooching.
