"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.

Flirting with a girl in front of one who rejected you really works!

A couple of weeks ago I got a girls number from one of my classes after she showed some interest. Later I asked her out to lunch, but she rejected me with all sorts of excuses. I took the rejection well and acted relatively indifferent. We'll call that girl Sara.

Just today I was flirting with a girl who I'm not really interested in, but have good rapport with. We'll call her Laura. In walks Sara who sits right behind me and Laura while we're flirting. I just ignored her.

A couple minutes later Sara taps me on the shoulder and tries to get my attention by asking me about class. She makes some really good eye contact and I can tell she's jealous lol. I continue acting indifferent toward her however.

Just before Sara leaves class (she had to go early) she asks for my phone number out of no where and tells me she's going to call me. A few guys behind us were laughing their asses off at how desparate she sounded when she asked for my number after she left the room. I just turned around and shruged with a grin on my face.

Not only was this a nice ego boost, Laura also acted twice as friendly toward me for the rest of class!

This was only a couple hours ago so she hasn't called yet (if she does). Whether or not she actually calls, I still think this was funny and an accomplishment to be proud of
 

"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.

Playing the jealousy card is probably one of the easiest and best things to do in that situation.

I learned this early on when I just started "hanging out" with a girl after I had broken up with my LT g/f in high school. I ended up banging both of them.

"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.
