"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.

ok well i was lookin at these pics of random kids at my skewl.. and i noticed how i knew just about everyone BUT I WAS CLOSE WITH NONE i wasnt even part of the clique at all

and this rele pissed me off for a bit.. felt like they were being fake friends and not including me in out of skewl stuff ><...
i later asked my close friend if i was hard to get close to or something. he said i was actually really likable (muahah) but nonchalant. makes sence cause i got A LOTTTT of acuatences (or however u spell it) but very few close friends (like 4-5)
apparently i guess people are to scared to get close or something i dont no but

HOW DO I FIX THIS HELP PLZ!?!?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

One good way to do it is to be open with people about yourself. This will make them feel that they can open up to you themselves without you spreading gossip about them, because you've already put your trust in them. However, you shouldn't do this with known gossip addicts (they don't make good friends anyway). Also (and I'm sure this goes without saying), don't betray their trust once they do open up to you... lol :D
