"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.

Highlights of the evening...
1) Liu Kang (don't know his real name) of Mortal Kombat was at the Hollywood club me and my wing went to.
2) An Al Quaida Bomb Threat was made, across the street was Jackie Chan's movie premiere as well as a TV studio theatre. The entire street was closed off, the patio was closed off, the upstairs club was closed off.
3) **** it, if this is our last day on Earth, me and my wing are going to spend it doing something we love... SARGE!

That actually became the opener and routine we used, if this was your last day on Earth... what would you do? Busted on any girls who didn't have an opinion (what, you haven't lived life at all?) but especially the party girls who answered sex.

Targeted them, rolled with the sex questions, sit them down, establish a bit of rapport, #-close, wash winse repeat.

Long story short, #-closed a bi-sexual with huge titties. Her best friend, also with huge titties, had apparently messed around and they told me up front after I had opened them up about any regrets, sexual adventures, etc that they had messed around just so they could this was their "one" chance to experiment.

#-closed another friend of their's after my wing had blown himself out. In debriefing him and her, it seems he came in with a cold attitude (exuding high value and confidence) and then warmed up waaay to quick, which raised her ASD shields (not enough qualification), but she TOTALLY loved the Cube game.

During Tug-of-War, while my wing was gaming this one chick (who apparently was on the MTV Awards as a D-12 Samurai chick), Liu Kang came in, pulled her out, got a quick makeout, took a quick photo, and booked. We got Celebrity Status Out AMOG'ed. Props to my fellow Azn!

Throughout the night LK was a little AFCish, but he put his celebrity status to good use with the women. Unfortunately, whoever his friends are, are even more AFCish too since they were clearly hanging on to his coattails and trying to bag his leftovers.

Still... very interesting night.
 

"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.
