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.
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
oh, okay...sorry 'bout that. you're right, i'm an idiot. i really need to grow up.Originally posted by Alph
TooColdUlrick, ur a fukkin idiot, u act like ur still in the elementary school so do me a favor and SHUT UP!
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

wasn't it you who asked how to be popular in high school in the The Mature Man forum?
my point was, if you try to be popular, it will blow up on you.
Al Gore (do you know who he is?) tried to be popular--people saw right through it. if you try to be popular, you are insecure. if you try to be popular, you end up appeasing people. you become known as the "sunshine boy"--a little svckazz that no one respects--like those nerds i spoke of. they wanted to hang with us, and they gave us $$$ for the pleasure. and if you ASK how to be popular, it's even worse.
didn't this just happen to you with your post? merely asking this question means you're a poser. How to become popular? hmmmm.....
funny thing is that people my age do this all the time, especially in my line of work. it's pathetic, cuz i'm still the popular one to this day. the more things change, the more they stay the same.
so let me answer your question. the way to become popular is to gain respect.
but what do i know...i'm an idiot.

nah, i think the only one who didn't get it was the original poster, Alph. but i think he's coming around...Originally posted by FratAndDiddy
Too Cold, youre getting pounded over here.
doesn't sound like your too "popular."
If you change your image, it can make you popular, iv seen it happen, it started to happen with me and then i thought wtf, these guys are jerks and left. Popularity is a facade and is quite easily gained.Originally posted by TyTe`EyEs
JSH, are you saying that by changing his image he will become popular?
I beg to differ.
