"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.

Hey guys, I'm new here, but not new to the DJ-esque philosophy. I've been reading David DeAngelo's stuff for quite awhile and I've always been pretty decent with picking up girls. I'm currently reading through the DJ Bible, so hopefully my question isn't in there already. I just thought I needed to ask this right now.

I've finally decided on a relationship with this girl I know. She's quite a prize, actually--fun to be with, really hott, doesn't start bull**** and drama, etc. I was absolutely fine when we weren't "together" a few weeks back--I could be ****ey/funny, etc. But now, it seems that she's more into the whole "I need to know you love me" thing, and we talk about serious things more often. At first, I thought I'd just tell her I'm redefining the relationship and we're not "together" anymore. But then I kind of figured that girls in high school need clarification on this kind of thing, and her friend confirmed it would be a bad idea to break it off.

So, to maintain interest in a relationship rather than just dating once in awhile, how does one go about that? Any general advice?
 

"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.

well relationships do advance but you should never stop doing what oyu did in the first place, youre still higher status, you still lead, youre with her but she should know that you have the ability to walk away, all those things with the right balance will keep it interesting to her, for you thats her prob to kee pyou interested
