"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.

Okay guys; what do you drink and how much? Miller Lite is my choice (one of the few beers that doesn't give me a headache). Dabbled a little bit in the craft scene, there's some very good beers out there. A little expensive, and quite filling.

I used to be on Vodka, but then the buzz starting wearing off. Went to Rum and starting getting some pretty bad hangovers. I usually stick to beer now.

I'm just curious if I'm a lightweight or not. I'm 5'7" 150 lbs and I usually drink a 12 pack (maybe slightly under). I'm not gonna lie though and say I can drink a 24 pack, because I can't. Haven't come anywhere close. Liquor I can drink and drink and not feel anything, until I am completely pickled. Ever since I switched to beer I seem to have lost my tolerance to booze.

What's interesting is that I can feel a buzz off a couple of beers, but liquor just seems to get me sick these days.

Favorite: Beer, Rum
Least Favorite: Brandy, Whiskey, Rumple Minze
Most times puked: Probably 5 or 6
How many days a week you imbibe: 3 or 4.
Most drinks on beer: 12 pack.
Most drinks on booze: 20 vodka tonics. I was so drunk I couldn't see anything. I recognized people's voices, but couldn't make out their faces. Passed out and maybe 2 a.m. Woke up at about 7 a.m. Still drunk... hangover didn't set in till about 4 p.m. Oddly enough, it wasn't that bad. Didn't throw up or anything.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Well I am currently on a sober year. No I'm not a recovering alco just with my training and all that no booze at all. but when I do drink it is neat on the rocks. mainly a good rum like Appletons estate 12 year old. or Chivas Regal 18year old (best dessert pour Chivas Regal over a proper vanilla ice cream you will not be disappointed). I don't drink often but when I do I make it worth it instead of being like every other 20 something year old and going into the night clubs and spending well over $100 on cheap nasty beer or RTD's and getting absolutely hammered. I would much rather spend money on a decent bottle and relax with a good drink with some good company. As for how much can I drink? well how long is a piece of string? I have been known to down a bottle to myself in a night and be fine and dandy and on other occasions I have had a hand full of drinks and felt like throwing my guts up, all depends on the scene and mood I'm in.
