"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.

Hey guys, need a quick opinion on something..(lol)

Apart, from the infamous "opinion opener," what other good opener types do you guys recommend me using? I could only think of the folowing atm:

The neg opener (e.g. you gotta piece of lint on your shoulder)

The compliment opener (e.g. I came over to talk to you because I noticed you had a wonderful energy)

The "hi" opener (Hi, my name is X)

Theres gotta be more ways to open a set...a little help here pls.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

IMHO "Hi, my name is X" sucks.

Check out bristollair.com, they have a bunch up, if you're into PUA stuff.

Out of the box
"Hi my name is X" is a vibe opener

Read their vibe, and walk in obeying the situation.

Everybody's dancing, walk up dancing
Everybody's laughing, walk in laughing
Everybody's quiet, walk in quiet

Just have confidence when you open, don't be desperate for them to accept you into your frame. Be confident and approach their frame... AS THOUGH YOU'VE KNOWN THEM FOR YEARS.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Here are some i like to use...

Situation: you are with a group of friends talking, and you and a random girl make eye contact in a bar, wait until it happens again and then wave her over, put your arm around her or something and introduce her to your friends as your girlfried. Adn then make up some bull**** story about how you think she is cheating on you and that you're going to break up with her tonight.
- most girls will play along and say, "ya, i was meaning to tell you about that"
- some girls may not even come over, if you're ballsy go over an introduce you to her friends as your boyfriend
(no my material, can't reme,ber who to give credit to)

OR
"who do you think lies mre girls or guys? opener I would usually start off with "hey my friends and i were ahving a discussion over here" blah blah
(con't remember again who to give credit to)
