"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.

OLD is dieing out as social media like instagram is where the true meat and potatoes of smashing comes from nowadays because it shows your clout and social proof and is an instant connection to every hottie on the planet lets be real here. and in my opinion even though its a facade its just as much of one as an OLD profile. infact i think the IG page will be more authentic and you can actually connect your worlds as far as business dating hobbies and friends goes.

POF, Tinder, bumble, etc. is just a way for companys to make $ off desperate guys. its sad but its true. Even if you are a top aesthetic chad you still deal with the BS these chicks throw and your still competing with all the other chads too which inflates these females egos up even further. literally every girl is living like the bachelorette online. its just supply an demand. wars have been waged over puzzy and we are living in the modern spiritual technocratic war of the genders and sexes and blending of everything. new world order **** poppin off.
 

"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.

If true, I’m gonna be screwed. I work a lot so my IG is pretty boring. No exciting pics of me mountain climbing...I do OK on Tinder as it’s just a few pics of me.

I get messaging back n' forth, but it just all of a sudden, she stops responding (doesn't matter the girl) and I'm like, "gee, it must be something I wrote that turned her off.." when all it probably was was, "she's talking to a slew of other guys now, I'm forgotten."

App is buggy as hell. It keeps showing the same profiles even though Ive swiped on them multiple times.

Don't waste your time with Tinder. Too many bots, catfishes, skanks covered in tats, fatties, single moms, instagram/snapchat farmers. I left swiped 90% of the time when I was on there.
Unfortunately, many apps do succumb to the same plague. It's not just strictly OLD sites, even; scambots and catfish have overrun Facebook and Instagram. They killed Kik. Riddled it like a gatling gun.

Try Bumble. It's got real people on it, for now. Take advantage of it now before it's infected later.
