"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.

How do you draw the line when Pushing/Pulling?

I find myself in a really awkward position. in one of my classes there are two girls, a HB9 and a HB7or8 that I am gaming. Both of them, i am pretty sure are somewhat interested in me. (though HOW interested, i have no clue). ANyways, at first i thought it would be a breeze picking them both up and using them against eachother for social proof and Push/Pull.

However, the problem i now have is that while I can give one attention and then take it away (as dictated in Push/Pull) easily by talking to the other girl the next day or at the break or wahtever i am this problem where I can't find the balance between giving someone enough attention so that they know i am interested and giving them attention and then taking it away.

Sorry if i dont make any sense, its really hard for me to verbalize what i am trying to say.

So like its important to show the girl your interested, and at the same time its important to take your attention away from her. How do I draw the line? I think this is killing me here and i am in danger of being friend-zoned.
 

"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.

what you're doing is called a jealousy plot line

the whole point of that, push-pull, social proof is to attract the girl enough that you can ask her out OR isolate her.

which of the girls do you like more? when are you planning to ask her out? or are you just gonna practice your attraction game indefinately?

Quit trying to play little games, pick one and proceed. After you f-close one, you'll have a better chance with the other, if you're trying to get them both. If you are into these games, f-close the one you like least first, then use her in the plotline to get the one you really want.
