"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'll have a house to myself starting December 21st. Do I have enough time to build up a rapport with girls I meet out of school to be able to get them over my house with them knowing we will be home alone? And how do I do this with out being creepy? This is my big step up to my game.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

One technique is to have an excuse to stop by your place after
you pick her up for an outing. Forgot wallet, etc. What this does
is give her the idea that your place is familiar. You can gauge
her very initial comfort by watching how far in she will go with you (while
you are retrieving your wallet or whatever). Step up game accordingly.
