"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.

I’m traveling to Baltimore and DC in late July for a vacation and simultaneously for preliminary employment purposes. I’ll be in the area for only a few days and I wonder where are good places to visit, good (but cheap) restaurants to dine in, and of course any good (but cheap) bars or strip clubs. I’m aiming to do this trip on the cheap. To illustrate, I will be sleeping on a friend’s futon.

Suggestions are welcome and thanks in advance!

:D
 

"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.

I have a feeling Paradox is gonna copy this to the Wingman Forum, but here it goes...

Try an Orioles or National's baseball game. You can get tickets relatively cheap and the parks are really good.

Go around DC to see the various monuments (I think nearly all of them are free.) The Lincoln, Jefferson, and Washington monuments are amazing in person. It shouldn't be too long of a wait to see them either.

Just going past the White House and Capital Hill is a lifetime experience, no matter who is the President.

There are some good clubs around Washington and Baltimore that people have told me about. I think Squirrels would be better ot answer that though.

Something else, if you don't mind spending a little more money, try a trip to Ocean City or the Inner Harbor. Maybe better off at the Inner Harbor though, since it's in Baltimore.

As far as clubs go, there's a lot of them to hit up in DC.

Check out an area called Adams Morgan in DC which is located at the intersection of Columbia St NW and 18 St NW. Tons of bars there, post college crowd. Also, look for Club Fur, H2O, Platinum, Dream.

Hang out at Metro Center at about 11 am on a weekday and pick up the hot chicks getting off the train -- they haven't seen a real man in years
