Big Neil for being a narcissistic a-hole who bragged about paying strippers
"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.

"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.

Sorry if this is necromancy, but just to add my 2 cents: I've found women respect me more if I don't pay for stuff for them. If I'm in a relationship it's different (I think it's only decent to pay her meals/outing costs every now and then, and sometimes I'd buy her small gifts without prompting just to express affection. Ideally she'd also be doing the same for me).
But my personal rule is that if any girl wants me to buy her material stuff as an actual part of our relationship, she's a waste of my time and attention. I don't care if she's a gorgeous model, that doesn't mean she can just turn me into a meal ticket. If you're just a dollar sign to someone, you're not going to get their respect.
IMO once you start buying stuff just to keep a girl hanging out with you, you start becoming like those basement dwelling guys that spend all their money buying random camgirls they'll never meet s**t because they're desperately horny. Even if you have sex with her, it's not you she's screwing, it's your wallet.
If a hot girl thinks you're a meal ticket and you put your foot down and say "Halves?" she knows you're not a cash cow. If she's a genuine money leech she'll move on to a dumb guy with a fat wallet (no loss to you). If she's a cool girl who was just trying it on because she knows she's hot, she'll probably be impressed by your balls and like the fact you're not trying to buy her.

this is the main problem with picking up girls using your money, if it lasts past hookups then you gotta actually spend your money on her
if you get the girl with just looks and charm whilst pretending to be a hobo or something you won't have this problem
