So recently i have been reading the game. i have only made it threw the first 80 pages and prematurely used one of the pickup lines with no idea how to close it. I was with my wing at a clothing store and he grabbed a sweater vest about the same time a hb7 walked around the corner. I asked her if she thought the shirt would be appropriate for the Maury show. We talked for 5 min or so and after the opener was done i had no idea where to take the convo to close. Any ideas
"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.
how could i not close!!

"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.

Man, shouldn't that just come natural? Sometimes I think I had more confidence before I came here. Seriously, what did they do in the 1960's? I know they didn't come here looking for advice on every little thing to do!

Websites like this didn't exist bac- What did guys do in the 60's? Oh yeah, they got off their ass and did what the fuck they needed to do! They weren't scared! They thought like Nike! Just do it. You may have stiff competition, you may not be a male model, you may not be a millionaire, you may have an entry level position. WTF are you worried about? She'll shoot you down? Maybe.Rhino22 said:

Tell her to give you her number, and pass her your phone.
Just don't act like it's a big deal, stutter when you say it, etc. Be casual, get some practice on several women, and it won't be much of a big deal. If you're comfortable with it, it will show through your actions.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
