"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.

some of you might remember me posting about an older woman who i sometimes (not much anymore) play ps3 together. always calling each other babe or hun and saying shes coming to visit me and how she cant wait to kiss me and be with me etc. (apparently shes a virgin and she wants me to be her teacher :p) shes also vietnamese by the way.

anyway, i kinda stopped sh1tting around with her cause i was wasting my time and dreaming about how i would be with her and all that crap. i have since met another awesome chick who is 23 and im 27 soon. anyway i finally got over that other woman until i checked my mail and seen a big package for me by the door. it was from her... sent from the other side of the world. i was expecting a letter cause she wanted to mail me often. but i got a bit surprised with this one. now i know she's loaded with money cause i seen her house pics and shes somewhat of a scientist or something. works in a lab. the postal itself was $22.80 - and inside it has a towel, shirt, 120 gb hard drive, a dvd and a cd. i havent opened it yet but i will soon. i also know theres a big love letter waiting inside. this would of cost her a fair bit and we havent even met before. lately she's also been messaging me on facebook and ps3 because i havent been on in a while. saying shes wondering where ive been and that she misses me.

so what should i do about this one guys? she says shes coming end of the year to see me and i know if the circumstances were right she would be a great woman to be with but im not gonna think about it because she still lives in a different country AND i have a girlfriend which she doesnt know about. im thinking just keep it cool and thank her for the gift and meet her when she comes to visit. see how it goes.
 

"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.

Be careful Lonewolf. I have had a Vietnamese girlfriend. They are not all poor here (80% are I think) and not necessarily out to rip you off! Some make it in HCMC (Saigon) and get jobs with a western salary with international companies. Vietnamese women tend to be virgins and make good wives, but that is what she will want, marriage! And to get to the states is not easy for her, marriage may help the visa process!

Many Vietnamese women want to marry a foreigner.. it's not necessarily about the money its about the way the western guys mostly treat them.. Vietnamese men after marriage don't tend to treat them so well. Also a baby from a Vietnamese/Western couple is 'very beauty' as they put it! Vietnamese women do have an endearing charm about them.

Cultural differences when dating is that the woman expects everything to be paid for all the time (until married when the woman often controls the money). They lose face if they end up paying instead of the man when they are not married. Also when dating they will never say thankyou, as in their minds saying thankyou is something you do to a stranger not someone close. Having said all this your lady may not be as traditional as this. And they may also give up their virginity before marriage despite saying otherwise ;)

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

No, It's called looking out for himself.

I'd be a little creeped out if I got a package in the mail from someone I barely knew and hadn't even met...

Put it in perspective:
What a woman think if she received and expensive package in the mail from a guy she barely knew and hadn't even met?
She'd either be creeped out, or continue to take advantage of him and not put out when or if they meet.

I think the type of guy who'd spend months talking to a woman he met playing Playstation 3 is the only kind of person who WOULDN'T be creeped out by this.
