"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 sure some of you guys remember me posting last Friday that I went up and made a super cold approach on this really cute girl at the gym last week. I don't consider the gym a hunting ground normally. Anyway one week later and I haven't seen the girl until she again showed up at the same time. She sees me and acts kind of stand ofish and shy after I initially wave to her on the treadmill. While I'm doing Butterflies she walks completely around the equiptment and comes by me. I start talking asking her about her week etc., girl was very shy for some reason. Cool. I then didn't bother her again until I was about to leave. I walked up to her and told her that I hated to interrupt her set but I wanted to get her number and hang out sometime. She replied with "Sure". I then had to get a pin and told her since I only pick up girls at gas stations I'd be right back. She laughed.

OK, so I come back and get her number and then she starts asking me what I was doing during the weekend. I took this as a you can call me sooner then later. I replied hanging out with friends. I then asked if she watched the Sopranos. She said she's tried and I replied with maybe I'll teach you sometime. We then partied with have a good weekend. I guess I'll call her Sunday and line something up for Monday or Tuesday. Awsome Firday indeed.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

the cold approach was very cold. i just went up told her i noticed her in the gym before and that i wanted to introduce myself. we did then i went back to my sets. 10 minutes later she walked over to me. i'm going to try to play this one different than my old days though b/c going out with women for the soul purpose of sex isn't my thing these days.
