"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.

Okay, here's the thing:

I just came to University and theres this girl I knew in a couple of my classes during high school. I met her when I switched classes (I had a conflict) and saw her standing outside the room waiting for class. I chatted a bit, how do you find university?, what residence you in... how do you like it? etc. She asked the questions actually. All pleasant and smiling. The next day I see her in class again and she turns around and gives me a smile. Now here's where it turns kinda weird:

As I leave class, there's two ways I can leave. The way I came into the building or a shorter way out. Anyway I see that she is heading the shorter way, so I follow along since I dont really know the building until we exit the building. Im basically 2-3 metres behind her. I dont say a word. (maybe she thought I was following her?)

The next day I see her in class. Class finished early and I'm just scoping around for her since Id like to talk to her. I find that she is sitting in the front row. Then the chick beside her turns around and just stares at me. Im thinking :confused: . "Thats weird. wtf is up with her?" They both talk for a bit, then the ***** does it again. They both leave together and bam there goes my chance.

I pass her today as Im walking out of the gym. I look at her and dont even get any eye contact. Doesnt even say hi. ( I dont say anything either) She's pulling off one of those walking forward but facing away from you kind of things.

Am I overanalyzing this? Should I just drop it and avoid her or is there some way I can fix this?

I really dont care if I can fix it or not but it is kind of awkward when I see her. Especially considering we have class together.

"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.

Forget her, SHE THINKS YOUR A STOCKER.

As for her friend just do what she does to you. If your in the hall just turn around and give that ***** the same look she gave you.

Goddamnit. Thats exaclty what Im thinking. Shes never been really that popuar in highschool. Mostly a bookworm. Probly had alot of free time to completely blow this out of proportion.

This SUCKS.

Oh well. Thanks for the advice on the friend thing. That bich.

Kinda weird that she would get spooked so easily. Didnt even do anything.

I'm actually of the opinion that she likes you and she's becoming shy. The best thing to do is act like you don't notice and talk to her. If she acts like she doesn't want to be bothered than you can just ignore her and move on.

It's also very possible that her "friend" didn't approve of you and that's why she ignored you afterwards. Either way, you don't want to look like you're affected by this, continue to behave in the same friendly way unless she does something rude to you. You can just say "hello" when you pass her, nothing more.
 

"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.

Let me make this clear. I havent been in that class long nor have I talked to her after that ****. I dont know whether theyre friends ot not. Maybe classmates?

Not only that I doubt her "friend" would disaprove of me. Im not the best looking guy around, but Im damn fitter than 80% of the guys here. I would rate her a 3-4. 5 is really pushing it.

This kinda happen to me back in the day, wish I knew back then how to handle it.

If the friend, or anybody for that matters, is basically STARING at you, don't ignore them, say Hello, or Have we met?/Can I help you?, or whatever, then the dumb bytch will realize how childish she's acting and turn away.

Also if you are walking 2-3 meters right behind the girl in a hallway or there's no one else, just say "see you later Jennie" or whatever. Think about it, stalkers don't really announce their presence.

And if she gets weirded out by a shy guy after two encounters, then think if you want to hang out with one of those immature chicks anyways.

Why the heck did you follow her and not say anything? Don't you think that is a bit wierd?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
