"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.

So, my girlfriend went to the doctor to see if she had asthma and if she could get a prescription for her anxiety. Well turns out she does has asthma and needs to get a inhaler.

While she was there they did some other test on her. She found out she has a fatty liver and is pre-diabetic. The fatty liver is caused by being over weight and bad diet. Now, I knew she was a little over weight but, didn't expect this to happen. So, it sounds like the best thing for her to do is start exercising and eating correctly.
 

"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.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Convincing people to get on the AD is really hard, especially a chick. I hear people talk all this nonsense about the AD, how its unhealthy for me to be eating so much fat and meat, etc. Then i look at there dinner of coke, french fries, chicken fingers, and ice cream, getting plastered with alcohol, smoking in addition to a sedentary lifestyle..... but anyhow good luck convincing her

Thanks for the advice. She has a doctors appointment coming up in the week ahead to find out more about this. I don't think it will be too hard to convince her. Because, of what she has; she has to eat healthy and gradually loose weight.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
