"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.
It does NOT help you improve YOURSELF to whine about girls

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Generalizations based on specific criteria are very valid. You're acting like people here contantly judge ALL the women in the world. This is not true, not even remotely. What I see here are generalizations of certain types of women based on particular types of behvaiour patterns. These do tend to be quite accurate, as many people in different situations can attest to the similarities they have encountered. Since we as men have more experience dealing with women on the romantic level, we have a much more broad experience than you would and would be able to see why some of these geenralizations are valid.
In short, you're over reacting. You're blowing a small problem into a bigger one.

DJs don't care, they next.
Wow thats pretty good, don't you agree? In fact I'll make that my new quote in my signature!
Sidenote: Yes I realize that I just complimented myself. It is OK for a DJ to do that.
OK I'm going off on a tangent here sorry.
Attention wh0res tend to compliment themselves.
I also figured out why many of them are bisexual, its because they want to get as much attention as possible. If they can't get it from guys then they go to girls. Interesting though that they are still not real friends with their lesbians partners.
Anyway never let any woman compliment herself in front of you.
Any woman that does that shows that she has low self esteem and respect for herself.
Its OK for you to do it though. The more the DJ compliments himself in front of a woman he is training her to give him compliments. After complimenting yourself say: "don't you agree?"
Your post is a valid post and I respect what you've said here. You shouldn't try to answer word for word or go toe to toe with these guys.
Just say what you have to say and leave it alone. This site has a reputation for it's incredible 3 day debates and flame wars.
Telling me not to go "toe to toe" with anyone who gets snarky with me is like telling a leopard not to have spots. I was a competitive debater and public speaker in school. I aced an argumentative writing course I took with little effort. It comes to me naturally and is in my blood. Eventually those who try to provoke me will figure out it's an act of futility to do so.
"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.
