"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 thought it will work because many youtubers and books tell to compliment lol. what made it more creepy is that I just asked her for direction then said "Your voice is beautiful" lol and she was a religious girl in burkha. I asked her because her eyes were beautiful
Giving a compliment is fine, but you should know the right time to apply it and that's for sure not too soon. Giving a compliment to a woman you just met and know literally nothing about screams of desperation. You have to start off casual at first.

I have no idea how to pick up a woman wearing a burkha, I probably wouldn't even bother trying it.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

You can suggest some books or anything that teaches how to approach and when to compliment

Most girls here don't wear bukha but I approached the one in burkha because if they don't wear burkha so their beauty effects me. It makes me more anxious

Not Neil Strauss, Nita Strauss. She's recently been the female guitarist in Alice's touring band, replacing Orianthi. She seems like she's pretty cool. I was just kidding about you golfing with Pook. I'd enjoy playing a round, but unfortunately I'm a terrible golfer. Not for lack of trying lol.
LOL I swear I was reading “Neil”. Probably because I saw a video clip of him a couple days ago.

Yes with Alice (Vince), but not with Pook. Pook completely vanished in around 2014, several years after he left SoSuave. His last visit to SoSuave was in August of 2013 in lurker mode. I guess he had a sudden urge to “drive by” the old stomping grounds.

I never took a liking to Neil Straus. I would definitely have you round out that foursome, @Zekkko. You are an interesting and friendly chap.
You must be a pretty good golfer. I googled Cooper and it says he’s excellent. I started golfing again about two years ago (played some as a young teenager). I would play every day if my back would let me

I bet you’ve heard some great stories.

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Actually, I almost completely lost my ability to drive the ball off the tee when my spine was fractured 10 years ago. In order to keep from slowing everyone up I take a drop where the shortest drive of my partners lies. Everyone who I play with is very gracious. I can sort of make up for it as unlike most people my short game is better than off the tee. I just play for the experience, not for the score.

Yes, I’ve heard some interesting stories, but we discuss the Bible more than anything.

Pook overdosed on the red-pill.

Atom Smasher overdosed on the old pill.


Respect, smash. One of the best mods ever.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I don't know why anyone would object to that, since not only is it fair to the extreme, it also saves them the time of waiting for another person to tee off.
You definitely wouldn't want to play with me though, since my first drive is likely to land out of bounds lol.

Thank you, I think... ;)
Sounds like a neg to me :)
