"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 let other plates down when going LTR?

I'm certainly not at this stage at the moment but, thinking ahead, I have three quality plates right now... I could see any one of them being LTR-worthy down the line if things continue to go well and if they were to ask.

My question is, should the day come that one of these girls pops the exclusivity question and I decide it's something I want to do at the time, how do I drop the other plates? My instinct would be honesty - tell them that I've really enjoyed our time together but things have started getting serious with another woman and it wouldn't be fair to anyone involved to continue on like this.

Because I'm realistic about the success rates of LTRs, I would ideally not want to break these plates completely. How do you guys handle this kind of stuff?
 

"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.

I have the same problem. Thinking of faking my own death. Then I can reappear later as my twin if things don't work out.

I just did it....

I didnt mention it to the other plates until they texted me and were asking to meet up. I just said "Its probably not a good idea....im seeing somebody exclusively now" and left it at that. She actually replied with a "Awe good for you, good luck" but I know she was p1ssed. Just dont make it a big deal that way you wont slam any doors. If the LTR doesnt work out, she wont hate you enough to ignore you.
