"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.

I'm fine anywhere else but for some reason this is the most difficult, they're either crowded and the only best way is when the HB is sitting beside or across from you.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Thanks, yeah that girl reminds of this Chilean girl I know. All of those annoying analytical thoughts described in the video were in my head too whenever a chick was a train.

She's pretty hot. Both are, lol.

Yeah the challenge here isn't getting a girl's number on the bus but basically more generally getting a girl's number in front of strangers. The added challenge is that nobody's talking and so they'll all be listening to you (if you're loud enough to hear). Although I've never tried for a number on the bus so I don't really know (but I have gotten numbers at bus stops, so it's close I guess haha).

Make sure you have a business card or something along those lines ready, because I've had it happen that a girl had to get off the train REALLY quickly because we were so engaged in a conversation that she didn't hear it come up.

In those cases, smile, hand them the card or paper while saying "Hey, can I trust you that you'll call me if I give you this?". I tried that one last week on a girl from dancing classes(Saw her twice and danced with her a bit and got a good vibe from her), I snuck her the note and she called me the next day.
 

"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.
