"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.

Date update + you must escalate here is how

Had a first date with a girl last week. Met online; very good email rapport. We meet in person and she is smiling. We stand fairly close to each other as we wait for a table at the restaurant. Convo is easy and bantering; I playfully neg her at various times -- she likes it. While eating the great convo continues, as do the occasional negs. She admits to being nervous and having a great time. When the check arrives she reaches for her wallet, I take the check and say no, if you want to pay you let me know if you want to go on a second date and you can pay for that. She makes me promise to let her pay for the second date.

We walk in the parking lot to her car. When we get to it I turn toward her, she does not shirk away, I put my hands on her waist and move in for the kiss. We are making out. If you really want to check her interest level look for French kissing, but you can't just ram your tongue down her throat. Here is how you do it, which I did: while making out you gently, subtly touch your tongue to her lip, not inside, just on the surface. Gauge her reaction. Often, if she wants it, she will then escalate. In my case her tongue was inside my mouth a second later. We continue and I again escalate by moving my hands down to her a**, pushing it in toward me. We grope for a while. A few minutes later we say goodbye. A second date has been set up. I am playing cool.

Note: even if things fall through, which is always possible with women, I won't be upset -- my game was solid and I have nothing to ***** about.

Compare that to my oneitis from the spring. First date we make out and I know she is interested. Second date I take it casual rather than escalating the setting. Afterwards she is angry and scolds me for it saying she wanted a romantic date not one where I'm wearing jeans and we're hanging out with my friends. I figured this was easily resolved but a conflux of events and timing, which I never would have thought would take place, derail the potential relationship I wanted with this girl. Had I been on my game on our second date and taken her to bed (which would have happened had I made the date romantic in nature) things would have been different.

It has been nearly four months since this second date with oneitis. What's my regret? That *I* didn't do what I should have done. I didn't escalate the date itself. I didn't escalate beyond making out with her afterwards even though she was making it clear I should do so (she started heavy French kissing). I didn't take action when I should have taken action and I can ONLY blame MYSELF.

What you have to understand is that this BS belief that you're somehow a better man if you show you want to be a girl's friend, or that you don't want her for sex alone, is bogus. If you're her friend you are most likely not having sex with her and that is how women generally categorize men. Friend = no sex. What a woman wants is for a man to make her feel special, make her feel sexy, make her feel as though she wants to f*ck you. She wants to be turned on and you will not turn her on by being a friend or by not escalating. So how do you escalate? You simply do it. That's what she is there for.
 

"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.

Repped. :)

If you don't get kisses very often then getting a kiss would be stepping out of your comfort zone. But, once you get accustomed to kissing, then you must once again step out of your comfort zone and have sex with her. I think other DJ's might have urged you to have sex with her that very night.

GJ nevertheless.

edit: "you must spread around rep before repping you again" :l

Fly: I suppose, but the fact that I am still thinking about my mistake with oneitis and kicking myself daily for it sucks. Every. Damn. Day. Sometimes I get angry, sometimes I get sad. Regret is almost always the result of not taking action -- always take action, always try to escalate.

nicely done!

A year ago I decided to kiss a girl on the first date if it "felt" right.
It seemed so, but when I went for it, my nose bumped her face,
I quickly turned it into a cheek kiss to which I heard her say "oh"

It was awkward to say the least, she didn't reply to my texts after.

I've gotten much better at it, but damn that was funny/embarrassing.

Classy lady for offering to pay for check. Have to find me one of those. Friendship- Abandon all hope ye who enter! Very wise words from a wise man. Have to say the verdict is still out on the sex in the first night bit. The few dates I have been on, I have personally wanted to make her wait till the second date. The ideology I use is the story, which is everything to these women. Have an amazing night with a great looking man who can kiss so well to make you melt where it counts is bound to get that second date to see if he's as great in bed as he can kiss. My last two dropped plates came for seconds, thirds and fourths before I let them go. Works for me, YMMV :box:
 

"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.
