"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.

this a whole bunch of crap, in the internet you can only find girls with emotional and self-esteem problems, crazys, girls that have been "burnt" by recent or past relationships and want a shoulder to lean on to, girls with depressions and nervous problems and... teenagers. if you are trying to getting a date through internet forget it and i mean it, you could do so much better in the real life dating world.

Forget monitors and keyboards, there's nothing like seducing a girl by smiling and looking deeply into her eyes and having a face to face conversation
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Agree. Have not had success yet with an Inter-date.

But then again, EVERYONE has issues these days. *shrug*

All you use the internet for is to hook up with people, that's it. There is really no such thing as "internet dating" because all you use the internet for is to contact one another. I've met tonnes of regular people and lots of so-so to crappy ones, it's all just a numbers game.

Internet dating may suck for YOU but that doesn't mean it sucks for everyone else.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

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.

It's usually the same guys that say that picking women up at clubs sucks too. Has anyone ever read a post from one of them actually where TO pick up women?

Online women flake bad but once you meet them they are the easiest to close as many will have you str8 to their houses.
Mnay of my field reports involve Internet chicks, including strippers and very hot women along with some average ones.

Just out of idle curiousity, nobody feels the slightest twinge of "man, I'm better than this" when they're browsing profile photos on Myspace looking for a new target to bang? :confused:

Dude, where do you go to eat? Do you go to a restaurant where you pay for what you want or do you go to a hand out line where someone gives you whatever they can for free?

You get what you pay for....
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
