Always have a bunch of female friends on hand so that you can make it seem as though you've got something going on. If you have to tell her you have someone else, she'll know you're probably full of ****. Just make sure that you're always seen with girls. It's not very hard to get platonic female friends. It's mutually beneficial....they get all the advantages of having a guy around and you get social proof.
"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.
If you're a recovering AFC and don't really have "other girls" waiting, make 'em up?
