"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 woman doesn't play the game or even know what the game is? She is just herself looking for a man who is himself? Not trying to play games or front anything?

I have met many a woman who plays the game, but few and far between who don't play.

Opinions please.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

There's a difference between games and excitement. Almost all quality women seek excitement. If they don't they are probably a bore themselves.

Women who play games like to see men drooling over them and usually aren't ready to commit to anything. Stay away from these women.

But if you find a woman who demands excitement, but isn't inconsistent with her emotions all the time, she is a quality woman. Deep down, most men want a woman who is going to try to screw with your heads a little bit.. we just don't want one who is going to SCREW us in the end.

"the game" is all-inclusive. you're playing it whether or not you're aware of it

and it IS possible to be genuine and good with women at the same time

I must agree WC2, that is EXACTLY the opinion I was seeking. I believe I found a woman seeking excitement and not intending to have me drool over her. Frankly, I don't think she cares if I drool or not ;) Thanks for the input.
