"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've been hanging out lately with this group that includes a bunch of foreign guys (they're from Ireland), and one guy in particular is one crazy SOB. He's currently a bartender but is also a model for the largest agency in Ireland, they're sending him here on a work visa to learn acting. I suppose he's a good looking guy.

I'm told that he goes out 5+ nights per week with his co-workers, and he will hook up with a new girl everytime he goes out. He doesn't actually have an apartment; he couch-sits at our buddy's, but only when he doesn't find a lady to stay with, which I'm told is a max of two nights per week. The most recent story he told me involved getting on the train to hook up with some girl he met two nights ago, but he was hungover and fell asleep on the train. He woke up 4 hours later (at 3:00am), and random girl on the train came over, chatted him up, and took him home with her. Supposedly he hooks up with anyone from 6's to 10's, but still, he pulls more ladies than I've ever seen from someone who is not a celebrity.

My buddies tell me...he's got nothing underneath, supposedly. Dumber than a box of rocks, big time moocher and not much for keeping a conversation. Supposedly, all his girls dump him in like two weeks when they figure it out; his longest relationship of his life was like 2 months. He's the stereotype of a model, the real life Zoolander.

He obviously has what it takes to get the girls, he just can't keep them. So, is the DJ's goal to bag-and-bolt, or is he not a DJ because he goes from girl to girl?

(Side note: All the Irish guys tell me that the accent gets all of them ladies everywhere they go. Those bastards.)
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

What do you think? This is one of those times we need elstud to say theres more to life than just getting girls. Im sorry, but if you have an IQ of 75 and are HOMELESS then youre missing something. The fact that you have to ask is concerning. How the hell would you not know if being a mooch is DJ or not? Going from girl to girl has nothing to do with this guy not being a DJ. What the hell is the world coming to...

Read the book "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac. Then decide if that guy is a DJ or not.

At the least, hes a PUA not a DJ.

DJ is all around, PUA is 1-D IMO.
