"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.

A topic that I haven't seen on this board: Earrings.

How many of you have them? What kind of stud do u wear? One ear pierced or both? Have you got any positive or negative reactions in regards to them?
 

"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.

I have 2 piercings both on the same ear. Earrings give off the "bad boy"/rebellious image and is a turn on for most girls.

I'm old school, just one stud in the left ear. I get the "Most guys my age don't look good wearing earrings, but you don't look your age." Hmmm, was that a neg-hit or what? :p

I got both pierced. I think it has to go with your personality and how you dress. You can't be wearing abercrombie and fitch with big ass fake diamonds in your ears. And no hoops please. Thats just gay.

I haven't experienced a major difference. A few comments from girls who knew me without them thought they were sexy, gave me a little edge to my look I guess. But other than chicks that actually know you, don't expect much. Girls aren't gonna just start flocking to you because you have pierced ears.
 

"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.

I'm old-school too! :up:

I believe with earrings, less is more in most cases.

Man, in the old days, only girls wore earrings.

I'd like to get a d!ck piercing though, maybe a few studs.
