"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.

if a girl is uncomfortable around you except when she's had 1 drink (then she's all for u holding her, having her arms around her) how do i make her feel this way when sober?

she gets nervous around me, maybe feels im going to try something.. are some girls just like this? as in uncomfortable with guys touching them when they're sober?
 

"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.

It depends if your nervous then she becomes nervous. So make your self comfortable and at home around her and she will get that energy from you and relax also.

Spot-on.

Okay, i was planning to start a new, revised thread on Kino for this, but guess i'll write it all here.

It depends on what your style is. Don't work your game on her in the club if you actually know her and she's not a one night thing. Ask her out during the day.

Talk to her, ask her questions, dig deep. Get her to pour herself out to you if you can. Ask her if she's into animals, then what kind of animals, and why that animal. Of course, don't be a robot.

If you feel that you are a highly sexual and alpha person while being around her, talking to her, don't kino. I'd put it this way, if you can kino with your eyes and speech, you won't need kino at all, unless you have took a wrong step and made her feel that you're not attracted to her. Do light kino instead, periodically.

Well, you ask, how would i know if i need to kino or not? At the start of the date, after some quality interaction (this is important), if you guys happen to be walking through a crowd, subtly put your hand on her shoulder and guide her along. Be careful not to overdo it, be cool, just for a short while. 8 out of 10 times, before you even know it, this is like a move where you're giving her permission to kino you. If she's attracted to you, she will start touching you at every opportunity.

Do light-kino, instead of the usual drills. Use kino as more of a test to find out if she's genuinely interested. It's not for building rapport and comfort. You are already doing that with your light-hearted conversations. Do kino from time to time, until you reach the stage where she seems totally comfortable, loving it, and wants more of it. Wait, don't get over-excited, that's when you cut it off for a while. Then go again. :yes:
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Smile and laugh and dont touch alot. move slow and patient. compliment her hair once.
should i be not surprised that she's uncomfortable cos i touch way too much?

i dont do very well at this kino thing.. i escalate way too fast. i may be better off sitting back and not touching her at all, she'll know somethings wrong when every time i'm with her i keep tryna touch her.

Kino should come naturally. When enough rapport/connection/attraction is built and the girl is into you and you and her are feeling good, there's no question about it. If you feel hesitant or awkward about kinoing her don't do it as the girl will feel it as forced. It's your subconscious letting you know that you haven't attracted her yet, and that something isn't right.
