"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 work at the gym at my college. All the sport chicks are always working out right by the desk and theyre always walking around. Does anyone have any good openers for this situation?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Situational openers are good for any...situation.

If she's wearing a t-shirt that says "Paris" then ask if she's been there.

If she's drinking an energy drink, ask, "How is that? I've been dying to try it."

Just use whatever she's wearing, eating, or doing as a conversation starter. It's a lot more natural that way.

Girls hate to be hit on at the gym. I'd advise against it. I'm not saying that it NEVER works, but most people in general go to the gym hoping to avoid conversation with strangers.

I'm with OFWHAP here. I go to the gym purely for working out. While I see some attractive girls at the gym, I focus on my weights, not openers. It's my only time of the day where I can really be "alone and in the zone," not concerned with any other obligations of the day.

Isn't this a little pessimistic? People are always busy these days, always on their i pods. I don't believe the gym is any more off limits than a shopping mall or any "day game" locale. Take a chance in any environment when an opportunity arises I say.

"practicing for delivering my baby?"


For a women running laps

"Baby you look so damn fine, you been running all around my mind. You must be tired by now"

or running behind a girl with big ass and tits

"Nice Jiggle physics"


For a woman on the punching bag

"Baby come boxing with me an it'lll be a love TKO"

or

"Momma said knock your pvssy out"

LOLOL hilarious.

I agree with most people on it's not the best time but if you do at least try and be considerate enough to do it when A)looks like they're done B)taking a break.

I think nothing's worse than interrupting some one mid set or right before they're about to start. Seems pretty rude.

Think about it though they're prob getting hit on by so many guys some days at the gym, I think just coming off straight up genuine and not generic can help you build up rapports that you could later take advantage of and get ****y and funny.
