"Why? Do you wanna be?"
"Why? Do you wanna be?"
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.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I'm gonna use this one! Do you have any other ones?f283000 said:hb: do you have a girlfriend?
hero: if you're interested i can get you an application. You think you can pass the background check?
Go watch Clerks, and then see why you NEVER ask a woman how many guys she's been with.Hearth said:Since you guys mentioned what to say if a girl asks how many girls you've slept with, I was wondering what's a good way of getting an honest answer out of the girl as to how many guys she has been with?
Is this something that they will generally lie about? I mean if it's a load of guys then naturally they're inclined to reduce the figure, but if they've only been with say 1 guy or even none then will they big it up a touch so that they don't look inexperienced?
