"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 this girl who is in one of my classes, Nicole, who is an absolute fox, came up to me the other day and told me she had a dream about me.....I wanted to know what I was doing in this dream, so I asked her a couple of times and she seemed content not to tell me so I was teasing her etc. Turns out she dreamt that we were making out at school in a storage room! I have pretty good rapport with this girl, and I do think it is possible for her and I to hook up. Any advice/past experience with situations like 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.

Yeah, If you dont think its possible for you and her to hook up, why waste time even thinking about it? Or is it that you're interested but you're scared it wont work?

Either way bro, you gotta make up your mind. This girl seems to have interest in you, figure out if you have interest in her, otherwise, forget her.

Yeah man thats the thing. I'm gonna make a move and probably hang out with her friday night or something but it might be a bit weird cause we've been friends for just over a year and it seems funny that shes just getting these thoughts about me now...or maybe I'm just picking up my game :D What would you do if you were in my shoes?

She may be telling the truth or being playful. Either way, it's a good sign. I, personally, would take advantage of the situation.

"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.

It's all there and ripe for the taking mate. Take her out somewhere, throw in a little game, and make a move. Just don't let yourself go home with regret.
