"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.

"Don't make me regret giving you my number"

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Prolly something like, "why? Are you afraid I'll break your heart?"

what was the context? Why would an interested girl give you her number but then say something silly like that?

Just do what Johnny Depp did in The Libertine.

Give a mischievous smile and nod your head knowingly.
 

"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.

First and foremost, I would say change your user name because from how I look at it, it sounds very negative, but that is beside the point.

Secondly, I concur with DavidDprogeny. She was probably hurt by some ******* and doesn't want to be played again. This is how my ex-gf and current gf acted.

My ex had trust issues and my current girlfriend was like this, said she didn't believe in love or anything. That all changed after three months. Natural order has been reestablished.

The only thing you would regret is not giving me your number.

Guys I have to disagree on the meaning of her statement.

Most likely she meant "I hope he's not another psycho who will call 20 times a day".

I doubt she said it because she is afraid of me breaking her heart. :crackup:

ive learned to not give a fcuk what women say and do whatever..women are dumb anyway and your jsut wasting time reading intoo what some random cumhog has to say
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

"Ooops, I'm afraid I'm going to have to call you 10x a day until you have get a new #."

Just a general rule of thumb: don't take anything a woman says literally/seriously in dating game.

She meant "you better call me and not just ask for the digits and then not call!" She gave other guys her number and they did not call - woman hate that!! This is a sign of interest!

“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.

I'd say "I won't, I'll make sure I call you 20 times a day and see how you're doing."

I think his user name is from a western " a man named Nobody".
I would laugh and say something ****y, like your not intiminated are you? If I call you can you keep up with me? I would challenge her, make it fun and get her interested.

Actually the username is from a CD by Canibus. I don't think I've ever watched a Western.


And I have a date with this girl tomorrow. Thanks for all the great replies!

"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.
