"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.

Trust me, you will get attention using this one :D
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

You have bad taste in music so please don't include any of your musical taste in your screen name. And pick something better that CoRvEttttee6699 or whatever. Be creative. Don't use something derivative and stupid like "want2boneu" or something equally stupid.
 

"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.

Having a good screen name is important because it gives you an image online. Especially when talking to girls. They give you an image based on your screen name.
Oh, shut up with that garbage.

Since you're obviously a Corvette fan, I'd say something like "LifesGr8WithaV8"

Man you're 19. Why the hell are you still playing around with IM.

That was really cool when you're like 14.

All the girls I know who are hot never go online anymore. Usually, they're out going to parties, getting banged, etc.
That's because you live in Washington, smart guy. Your girls are the ugliest girls in all 50 states. Around here, nobody gives a damn about the sluts, because hot girls who are NOT sluts are too easy to find.
