"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.

This girl says she wants to be with me but she is going to do what she wants including club drink smoke and dance on niggas in da club. I tell her i dont mind if she clubs or drinks or smoke occasionally but I'm not gonna be disrespected by her dancing with niggas in ****. and shes like thats gonna be me....

Am I being to insecure?? We been together for 8-9 months. I'm just shocked by the face that she won't sacrifice anything for me anymore in order to be "her".......

What do you guys think...
 

"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.

This relationship is OVER.
We told you that in the last thread and in this new thread, we'll say it... AGAIN.

It's time for you to dump her. Look at the reality surrounding you. She said to you that "things weren't the same". This is her way of slowly breaking up with you. I say you do it now rather than wait til the very end in hopes of you two getting back together the way you used to be.


Look, I know she's your first g/f or whatever "first" she is, but it's over and it's time to move on.

She's already telling you that she's going to disrespect YOU and the relationship. She's going to dance (which could even mean fvck) other guys whether you like it or not.

So are you going to be the guy that stands for that or are you going to be the MAN that says: I'm not putting up with that, nor should I have to... this is OVER.

Do it before the situation escalates for her. Because believe me, she WILL go out and dance with other guys and other guys WILL try to bang her. Your woman is of LOW quality which is partially your fault because of details lined out for you in your last thread.

This relationship flat lined some time ago, it's time to prepare the tombstone for it and ready the burial.

The good news is... you get to go out and find new WOMEN (That's right, PLURAL of WOMAN).

You're still young. On to the next one
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Of course she sent you a text agreeing with you. It's part of her plan to keep you. Just break it off NOW.

Wow! And you took that? Sh!t, man. No woman has ever disrespected me like that. If I were you, I'd kick her to the curb and start spinning new plates.

Wow. Absolutely ridiculous. Guys take this!? :eek:

I aint take dat ****. I told her str8 up that aint happening..... Then next day she apologize for everything and say she knew she was out of line and that she was frustrated at her family and she took it out on me. I told her str8 up dat she aint run nuthin even though she think she do. So today she apologized and told me dat she was sorry and blah blah blah and that she wasnt thinking she was just mad.

"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.
