"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.

FR: Talked to a table of girls at lunch.

You guys know the drill. Here's the approach...

So I sat down at this table of girls at lunch and I even knew the Lauren girl who sat there. So soon as I go into to the set I say something along the lines of "You girls must be nervous, I'm sitting here and you're not talking to me". And then one girl ask me about wrestling and that happens. Eventually I just start joking with the girls and there's this one particular girl who's f*cking cracking up. At one point she did get disinterested though, because she moved her chair away. And I tried to talk to Lauren 2 times. First time I tried to ask her about her weekend she says she can't understand what I'm saying and I'm like "You need some hearing aids babe". Second time I just vibed with her and when I asked her what she did she was like "I went downtown". So then I was like "What'd you go downtown for? A strip club?" and shocked she was all "No I went to this restaurant". Blah blah, she asks me what I did and at first I can't remember, but then I start talking about this party I went to. Blah blah, told her about that and I asked her "What restaurant did you go to?". Blah blah she starts talking about the restuarant and I'm eventually like "Haha, you're losing me here Lauren" because I had no idea what she was talking about. As for the other girls, one particular girl was just cracking up the whole time and she was like "Oh my god, I can't stop laughing" and the bell rung and she was like "Thank god". So that was that set, nothing particularly interesting.
 

"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.

Chalk up another pointless interaction for "Mr interaction".

They seemed to be taking the p!ss out of you......

Reads to me that the were laughing AT you rather than with you.

Don't reply to his posts... it'll end up looking conceptually identical to his previous one.

Good point.

No-one post after this!!!!!
 

"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.

Sorry, I feed the Stud.

So El Stud, do you remember what I advised you to do last time? Don't call girls whoers, strippers, etc. unless they know you're interested and kidding...other than that, you should stop "vibing" and try being direct. Just ask one out on a date. You're posts are beginning to depress me, so make some progress already!

I addressed you in that first line. Do you see it now?

GWA, i notice you give a ton of advice on damn near every thread i read. you're only 15 years old. i'd just like to publicly call you out and ask you what your qualifications are: how popular are you in school, how many chicks have you laid, etc what is it that makes you so damn wise and able to give advice to not only elstud but also 30 and 40 year old men who might take you seriously?
Lmao, relax man. His balls havnt even dropped yet, no need to bust em yet.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

I didn't call her a stripper. Plus lol I don't think she was too offended due to the fact she asked me what I did over the weekend later. And I don't know about you, but I usually don't really have to be interested in a girl to approach her. Most of the time I just approach for practice.

GWA, i notice you give a ton of advice on damn near every thread i read. you're only 15 years old. i'd just like to publicly call you out and ask you what your qualifications are: how popular are you in school, how many chicks have you laid, etc what is it that makes you so damn wise and able to give advice to not only elstud but also 30 and 40 year old men who might take you seriously?
Could it be that someone else is catching on to GWA? Seriously though, the fact that he's a well known troll who gives advice and doesn't actually use it or test it, doesn't help his case.
