"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.

here's my 2nd journal attempt. my lil bro is a natural. I got too obsessed with schoolwork in my middle school years and self-conscious about how i looked... before that i was just like him, his entire personality is basically me 6-7 years ago. My bro literally commands like a crowd of 15 girls everyday at lunch. i need to step it up.
My main problem is that I haven't tried to be social for two years. it's junior year and i'm not sure how i can change that. I'm not a loser but i also have few connections in the hot *****es group... sucks. there's a party in late oct. where i'm planning to hookup.. but at this rate i'm going to ***** out for sure.
hb tall - got choded by someone when i was talking to her the other day but still has interest. shes relatively hot so shes not going to show it.
hb runner - prettty sure i could hook up if i played my cards right. friend of hb tall.
hb rachel - good friend of mine. 6-7, could hookup easily. but not worth it imo, shes too awkward.

As you can see. Very few choices.

My main problem is inside. I have really high expectations of myself but I'm also ****ing lazy all the time. i end up being depressed when i don't meet those goals. oof
 

"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.

Then close your friend "you could so easily". It'll give you confidence. Fvck her silly.

I've found that aerobic exercise and a healthy diet do wonders for depression and laziness. Granted that it takes a bit of motivation to start up, but the difference is really significant.

Today I felt awesome. went up to a girl, sat her down, threw my arm over her and had a great conversation. girl is 8 or 9 on looks, but kind of skinny serious game. I have a very strange feeling that this is correlated with my week of no-fap. but i broke it today out of boredom.. ****.
I don't think no-fap contributes to game. but it contributes to more energy -> better game. I'm going to go for a up until the end of the month from now on, there's a party then and i need to be on my game for a hookup.

i really might.. there's no way to do that around here except by going into a dark theater and watching a movie. might try to get some head.
 

"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.

my diet, except for ****ty school lunch, is very healthy. well, i eat five guys or chipotle once a week but that stuff is relatively healthy fast food.
I work out 3 times a week and do aerobics dancing for two hours. i'm still really ****ing lazy... well this weekend, i worked on a business project of mine for 12+ hours but skipped over most of my schoolwork.

I hooked up w the friend. Kissing was a little boring tho, just the tips of tongues touching? The problem is, the girl I was planning to have hooked up w didn't show up, and now my friend thinks I like her. Which I do, but not as much as the girl who didn't show up. what should I do?
