"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

So guys, I want some input on how to close this scenario. I think I did ok but I love critique...

I was at the grocery store today and made immediate eye contact with one of the employees as she was walking into the store at the same time as me. She smiled BIG. Later as I was shopping walked by me and smiled again as she was showing a customer where to find something (I couldnt chat her up there). As I was checking out she was at a register, I obviously took that line so I could chat her up a little. As she was checking me out her manager was talking with her (i was getting blocked left and right!) I was going to give up then she asked me if I wanted to donate $ for a local charity. I said yes and she gave me a piece of paper to put my name on so they hang it up... I put my #. We shall see the results.

I have also used this same instance where the charity was an animal hospital and you are supposed to sign in honor of your pet. I always put my roommate's name and then find some clever way to tell the checkout clerk what i'm doing. they always love it, its a good way to show some good humor.

Input?
 

"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.

I hope you didn't write your number so it's displayed somewhere, that would be odd.

"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.

I always give to the Jerry Lewis MD charity and usually when asked if I'd like to give during the year at places like CVS or Ingles the cashier will hand me a pen and a piece of paper and it's only to put your name not a phone number.

If she see's your phone number where your supposed to put your name and it doesn't click to her to why you didn't put your name she will have to put it up on the store windows because of the dollar you gave thats what they ask for here for that charity. Don't be surprised if you get phone calls but not from her... not really sure how this will turn out but don't get your hopes up or beat yourself up we all have been there... that is, finding creative ways to beat around the bush when we should be man enough to just convo her into giving her number.

Also Espi gave some good advice.
