"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'm surrounded by attainable chicks yet am unable to act. The desire is there, but there's no will.

By "attainable chicks" I mean girls who average about 6.7 on the hotness scale. Anything above simply does not exist for me.

I made progress a while ago. I attained a chick. I made out with her, felt her up...but then I stopped trying after that relationship fell apart.

I got a phone number recently. From a fugly. My self-contempt has never been higher.

Why is it so hard?
 

"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.

And what exactly would you like help with? No-one can motivate you to have more will, or improve your negative mindset.

I dont see where you get off calling a girl a "fugly" when you obviously arent mr hotshot yourself. You dont have to like her, but please, based on what ive read you dont seem like anything special and you ought to give "fuglies" a try because with that attitude thats all youre going to get.
