"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.

Eye contact...

Hi all,

I talk to this girl often (we're friends), and I'm curious if she's starting to become attracted to me. I'm trying to pay attention to her body language, namely her eyes. Whenever we talk, she almost never loses eye contact with me. Although this is a sign that she probably likes me, how do I know that she just isn't that way with everyone (keeps good eye contact no matter who she's talking to)?? I'd appreciate any advice.

"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.

Woah back it up..

If you're in the friend zone, and maintain what you did to get into it, you're NEVER COMING OUT, BUDDY. You probably lost your chance.

I say ganji her for awhile and come back to test the waters.

Never ever become frickin' FRIENDS with someone you want to date for christ's sake!

Ask her what she's doing after school that day, or tomorrow night, or whatever. When she says that she's not doing anything, (or more likely being a high school girl she'll make up something she's doing to appear popular), even if she says she's doing something, you tell her that you guys should hang out at _____ then.

Not hard at all. If she says no, and you ask again some other time, and she says no again, she's not interested.

Just assume she's interested until you're EXPLICITLY shown otherwise - most guys here have pretty low self-confidence and take any little bad sign to be the end of the world.

Put another way...
Why do you talk to her? Because you're interested in her.
Now, why would she be talking to you? Because you know how to cook some mean chocolate chip cookies? ;) - no, she's talking to you because she's interested, too.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Hmmm...

I have been to a couple movies with her, but even then, it was assumed that we were just friends. I'm just curious (recently) if there's anything more. Now that I'm starting to read the DJ bible (and these great posts on the forums), I think I will have a chance to get out of the "friends zone" with her.

BTW...she plays sports year-round ('cept next year in fall, but I play football then), so it's rather difficult to make plans with her if it's not during a weekend or summer...

Thanks for your time/input, I really appreciate it!

That's the thing...I don't know if she keeps "intense eye contact" with every guy she talks to or just me (if she likes me). It's hard to tell, but I think she makes less eye contact with any other guy, unless I'm missing something.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
