"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.

"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.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
WHY BOTHER?
Jesus man, people who do that usually are the ones that back women into a corner so saying no would make them look obnoxious. How about you ask her out a typical way, if she says yes, then give her one hell of a night and make THAT extreme? What kinda pansy man would go through extremes just to ask her a simple question? Would any non-desperate woman do this for a guy?
Ask her with a simple question. If it's a yes or no question, then there is no reason to put it into skyfliers. You'll look desperate and hopeless.

give her a chocolate bar, or some food item she likes, but poisen it first... After she eats it, tell her she only has 20 minutes to live. But if she agrees to come to homecomming with you, you might give her the antidote...
I say might because most people who say stupid **** like this also have a slight case of necrophilia...
Hey, whatever gets your rocks of man... i'm not judging you...
[note: you could just slip a note in the chocolate too... a golden ticket to your willy wonka...factory... persay.]

it really depends on how much you put into it really. Mine cost me something around:
tux rental : $100
booz : $ 60
cigar : $ 80
'buying' my date* : $ 80
cab to my place : $ 30
crazy monkey sex at my place :
PRICELESS
*before you all go loco on this one, let me explain. whe had this auction thing where you could 'buy' a date to the prom, the money went to some hungry kids in africa. I bought two chicks (heh, they came in a 'package-deal') for $80, and sold the other one for $100, to a AFC mate of mine who had a huuuge onetis on her. So i actually made some money on that deal.
and my date was really into me, she wanted to go with me, but couldnt since she was going to be auctioned away. but i took care of that.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
