"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.

Do any of you DJs ever introduce yourself to women with a handshake?

Is it strange to do this or is it great for kino?

Or is this more of a business kind of thing?

I would like to start doing this but i'm worried its a bit unnatural.

Thanks guys :)
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

It all depends on the setting. Rule of thumb for business is to wait until the lady offers her hand, then shake it.

In a social setting, you're better off kissing it than shaking it.

handshake works, but hugs are better, or if you feel like it you can do a handshake and turn it into a hug, w/e works for you

Only when I'm introduced to a girl or if it's a party where it's 100% normal todo this to greet new people and/or do preintroduction.

One piece of advice I read suggested going up to women holding out your hand to shake hands and introducing yourself "Hi, my name's X".

Personally, I try to avoid the handshake, except in a formal/business context.

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

Thanks everyone :)

I'm trying to find a way to work an introduction into my conversations with women.

I find that i can start the convo easily enough, its just really hard to work around to introducing myself and getting her name too. I have literally been talking for five minutes and never actually introduced myself. Crap, i know.

I was thinking that maybe after two or three minutes of convo to then say "Oh, my names Pete" stick out the hand and hope she gives me her name. Once I have the name I'd be able to say "I've got to get going, whats your number?" or whatever.

Does this sound ok? Or would a simple "So whats your name?" be better?

That is the way I do it and it shows great classical style.

Jungleman Pete:

Just go up to a woman and do that kind of handshake and introduce yourself.Just start talking about anything that comes to your mind. It might sound weird because you arent used to it but it gives you some social superiority when you do it the right way.

If you dont want to do it because you are afraid of doing it, it is for the following reason:

Cunts! You know the ones who will tell you "WTF do you want!?". Well these girls are often left alone and you shoudnt bother with them or take their opinion of yourself seriously. Really, why takes the opinion of someone who cant follow proper conversation Etiquette? You are better than that.

If a woman( girl) ever does talk to you in a matter you find innapropriate , say loudly(so that everyone hears) : "What a groteste excuse for a woman you are" and leave.
