"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.

So I was texting this girl I've been gaming when her boyfriend had her phone and he replied saying "it's (her boyfriend). what do you need? you can tell me buddy ol pal"

how would you handle a situation like this?
 

"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.

depends if you're willing to fight him or not. You could stand up for yourself and not take his condescending sh1t, or you're could play it off, or you could puss out.

Plenty of options.... some better than others.

fighting him would be fine but i'd rather avoid the drama, he's never seen me so i dont think he realizes i'm 6'5 300+. but i just played it off...i replied saying "what's up" he said "you tell me." I said "just driving home. how about you?" he siad "nothing" lol

sounds like you just diffused the situation....which is neither good nor bad. I would probably do that every time he tried to start sh1t over text. In person though if he does that.....

well, you're 6'5 300+ so he probably won't hahaha.

"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.

What's your deal with this girl? are you hooking up with her knowing she has a boyfriend?! if that's the case, then don't leave evidance.

Don't text a girl with a boyfriend,

Don't message a girl with a boyfriend on facebook,

Block your number when you call her,

Any kind of evidance that can link you to her should be minimized.

The fact that she allowed him grab her cell phone and text you as well as talking sh1t about him to you behind his back, tells me she is playing you both.

Hit it and quit it because this girl is just looking to stir sh1t up for drama purposes.
