"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.

"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.

i believe that chart is an attempt at humor.

put 6 drinks in me and the woman i take home will be severely dissapointed.

i almost aways drink 3:
2 rum and cokes
1 beer

has nothing to do with picking up women.

I don't drink so that I can talk to women; I drink so that I can put up with the environment. I have a little bit of social anxiety and would never make it in a crowded bar/club while sober.

A lot of young people here need alcohol to get laid.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I don't need alcohol, but I like the buzz a few drinks gives to me.

PS: the chart is just a joke

It also sucks to be the only sober person in a room full of drunks.

It's funny though when you can **** with their heads, both at the time and afterwards.

I drink cause my clients pay me to drink with them. Take care of the clients and they take care of you. That's how we do it.

Sure, they are a pain, but you got to make the most of it and be positive. You can sulk in a corner whilst everyone else loosens up. Or you can show them that you don't need drink as a crutch.
