"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.

hey, I'm going to my first concert tomorrow, and I'm not really sure what to do.

it's queens of the stone age, so it's like a generic rock concert I guess. I mean... Is there anything else to do besides just listen to the music and dance if you get a floor seat? I remember one guy I was talking to about them said he was looking forward to "getting drunk and laid" at one of their concerts, I can see the first one, but how do you manage the second?
 

"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.

I just went to see Alice in Chains last weekend (fvcking awesome btw)...there were more single hotties than you could shake a stick at. I was mainly there for the show though, girls will always be there but how many times do you get to see Jerry Cantrell playing a live acoustic show? Only downside was the high beer prices and sweaty fat fvcks surrounding me and trying to mosh at an acoustic gig.

As far as the "getting laid" bit...women are a lot easier to talk to at concerts, because they're not concerned about looking like a slut. Kinda like spring break in Cancun or something, it's like shooting fish in a barrel. Chat 'em up while you're standing in line for starters...
