"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.

DO women deliberatelly inform the other person that she is dated someone else and it did not work out ? or is she sending any other message? What are the chances that a tall woman will find a date? I thought man find tall chicks repulsive.. am I right on that?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Don't read anything into what she said, base how well you are doing with her by how she treats you.

I think tall women rock, they need to be slim or athletic though, don't want a tall woman with a build like Shaq.

Or has a weiner for that matter.



About your first question. I say that she is giving you a heads up on that one. Not that you should really care if you only want to date.

That's a very vague narrative mark9. So this lady told you she dated someone and it didn't work out?

Stop the presses! This has never happened before, I say you dump her now!

All kidding aside, did she say WHY it didn't work out?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
