"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.

Fat is ugly

After doing work on cadavers, I have gained knowledge that has made me vehemently opposed to being fat.

When you are fat, not only your outside, but your inside, is ugly. Mounds of yellow pulsating fat layer the muscles of your abdomen to the point where you cant see anything there but a big yellow draping pile of goo. Because of the fat, the heart has to work harder, and your valves become hard as a rock and dont pump right....this causes your heart to grow really large and become ugly. Fat is generally ugly. I would never date a fat girl, and if my girl got fat Id drop her. I expect the same opinion from
girls..

Your soul only really counts in the long term. Remember that.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

Looks does matter. Study says that looks is important to women as it is to men (google it you slacker :)).

I consider myself to be a little below average in the looks department but its cool though cuz I know that for every 10 women I approach, at least one gonna think i'm a hottie. It might be a little low but I do have other great qualities.

So for those who aren't blessed in the looks department, "high approach numbers" is your friend.

Don't be merto with it though.If your dressing up to go to shcool or the bank then you got issues.
Not at all, there's nothing wrong with looking your best all the time.

People will respect you for having pride in the way you look, especially with some the the sweaty, messy kids that attend my College.

It makes you stand out if you get into class, sit down with nice smelly after-shave, clean hair and you're well dressed.

I always try to look my best, I didn't used to and I used people used to laugh at me for it.

Now I carry round hair gel, deodrant etc and make sure I'm always looking and smelling as good as possible, as long as you're not obsessive with it then it's never going to have anything other than a positive effect.
