"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 watched this movie Chloe the other night and a few things stood out.

here is the trailer.

My roommate rented it for the lesbian scene he heard about.The ending was mediocre, the story was pretty predictable. But the lessons in it was pretty interesting. It's billed as romantic thriller, but its not. It's a deconstruction of the aging woman's psyche.

The first thing that stood out to me is that this woman while smart and accomplished is still a woman, with a woman's needs. It shows the true nature of game laid bare. It shows aging women and their fears once they hit the wall. In a very telling quote she tells her husband, you keep getting brighter and better and I'm just getting, old. It's like I'm invisible. It also shows that women both hate and love the fact that other women want you. Pre selection is golden. They may act out against it, play games, and manipulate but they would rather act out against a man with options than settle for a man with none. As Roissy says, 5 minutes of alpha is worth more than a lifetime of beta.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
