Anybody got a good opener for a late 40's hb8 on facebook? I do not the woman at all.
"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.
Facebook opener?

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Man...I don't know...timmylivingalie said:
I think generally Facebook is bad place to try to make a move on a woman. I tried only once and it didn't work out and left me feeling creepy, so I vowed never to do it again...no matter how hot the prospect.
Facebook profiles are generally a person's virtual turf. It's not their dating profile. I almost equate it to walking onto someone's property, knocking on their door, and flirting with them completely out of the blue.
Do you not know any of the people she is friends with? If not, you have no way in unless you really want to reach out - but prepared to be rejected or possibly blocked.
Put it this way, I'd be even leary of a women Facebook messaging me. That takes a lot of effort and I be very concerned of the motive.
Sorry man...I just don't think it's worth it.

I agree with expos, I used to try gaming chicks on fb and its a VERY slippery slope into being called/classified as a creepy guy. Not to mention if she knows people you do she'll most certainly inform them and embellish it only to make you come off as a creep even more.
If you must though, the safest and most inconspicuous way is to send a friend request and then a message saying something like "I thought you were someone else I know, now I'm confused.. Have we met?"
Gauge her response and act accordingly.

Facebook? Seriously? Get this weak sh*t outta here.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
