"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.

Never contact twice. You just sit back and go about your day and life. If she contacts you later, hey whatcha doing, wanna hang out? Then, Netflix and chill bro. You do not spend one penny on her; aside from food needed for a meal at home, some wine and a Netflix subscription. Though, Hulu or Amazon Prime could work too.
Firestick is the way to go. Occasionally I need to have mine reprogrammed or updated, but it is the shyte.
 

"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.

That's a good option to. You can get a used one for 5 bucks on Craigslist or eBay if he's low on funds. FB marketplace is a good option too. Picked up an decent iPhone 8 for 300.

I literally had a chick that I've hung out with twice give me the run around today. She sent me a "hey" and I immediately told her we should hang out this weekend. She started dancing around the invite and within 3 messages I said "no worries. Consider my generous offer of wanting to hang out with a divorced 28 yr old with a daughter withdrawn. Maybe you'll get lucky and get a better offer from another successful guy today".

She sent me 3 texts back playfully telling me that I was an A hole and I didnt even read the fb messages. I just deleted them.

Its shyte or get off the pot with me. No in between.

Save time by getting to the point. I'll bet all I own that she will respond back tomorrow.
 

"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.

Stop messing with single moms. Nothing but drama.
