"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.

Guys Worry About Body Image

"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.

Who are the 18% idiots?

If someone says they wouldn't change anything about their body, they better be cut as someone like Michael Phelps with his swimmer body, or whatever bodytype one prefers taken to its respective perfection.

Phelps really is probably one of the sexiest men alive. If I were a chick I would seriously want a piece of that.

I heard a quote somewhere that goes along the lines of "once you're content with yourself you stop trying to improve." I take this to mean that you should always continue to work or you'll go stagnant, lose focus, and begin to regress.

I know that I, for one, am not content with my body, and that is precisely why I'm working on it.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Well, looks may be mattering more for guys now...just look at Scarlett Johansson fiancée, Ryan Reynolds.

And look who Angelina Jolie is with (Brad Pitt). Etc.

So, there seems to be growing pressure on us to muscle up, to cater to the hot girls (who care more and can be pickier about such things).
