"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.

Hi,

Im new to this place and new to pickup related things.
I'm not very good with women and get socially awkward around them fast.
This is something i should probably fix and since i never did it in highschool im stuck with it in college now.

I feel the problem gets bigger every year, even though i improve it's just that the world changes faster than i do.
Im 20 and 2-4yrs ago i was into 14-16 yr old girls and i screwed up there.
Now i have to talk to 17-19 yr old girls which is obv much tougher.

Nothing is too late though and i'll be doing a lot of traveliing soon and be in cities for a week where i probably won't return.

So basically i want to know:

Anyone else started this way?
Wait for vacation and than just approach a bunch of people you will never see again.

Where to start?
I don't like the idea of pickup lines a bunch but it must be a fine way to get started so, what are the 3-5 best stories/lines to start with.

Any pointers?

Look for eye contact body langause and such?
What specifics to look for?

Also i can imagine there have been other posts like this, so if this is out of line PM me and i will move it to a the correct part of the forum or edit my post.

Hope you guys can help me :)
 

"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.

What would u think would be a good way than?

Also, It's not that I'm not a confidant person.
Just not when it comes to talking with women, , largely due to my lack of experience i think.
Seems to me best way to fix that is try to talk to people.
I'm also intrigued by the entire pickupartist thing and im wondering whether or not it can help me.
