"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 broke up with my ex 2 months ago and iv been seeing this new chick for a month. once or twice a week we've been going out. she was into me, doesnt flake and already fcked. everything was going smooth until my ex hacked into my fb acount and on my account she messaged her threatening her and telling her to stay away from me. The next day she confronted me and told me she dont know if we can work out even though I explained to her that we broke up a while ago. A mutual friend then decides to call her telling her that ik was de,pressed and that we really did break up. she then tells him if I call her tonite she will come out. I eventually did and she straight up said no. I hit her up the next day and she doesnt pick up. I acted a bit desperate. did I fail a **** test? how do I rebound?
 

"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.

This is called harassment. Contact Facebook about your account being hacked, explain to them you want to make a police report.

Contact the police right away.
 

"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.

Some advice to add the good stuff above, F it, it is what it is. Maybe ring her when you want but I think she's gone, slap yr ex while yr at it. She crossed the line.

Also, don't waste yr youth worrying about girls, invest in yr interests or what you love, make money from it, so maybe you not stuck in a shi*ty job with betas when yr older.

P.S use a condom, ALWAYS

Forget trying to rebound with her.
It sounds like your new girl spends too much time in her own head turning everything into a drama, if you do get together with her, she's going to be seriously hard work.

Move on.
