"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's amazing what a bit of paint can do for a woman

"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.

And they're not even showing cleavage. The infamous 'fat girl overhead angle shot' bumps them up a couple of points in appearance as well.
I would be suspicious of the bottom two, though, because they look like Thunder Cats http://images5.alphacoders.com/447/447990.jpg

In addition to make up, those pictures are clearly photoshopped (last I checked, makeup didn't change your jawline or the structure of your nose). In real life, the effect would be less pronounced. Still, makeup can make a hugh difference on some women.
"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.
I was going to say it reminds me of the porn stars without make up post.Alvafe said:
Some of them though are WAY over brushed in photoshop.
It also reminds me that some women just don't look all that good without makeup.
This early 20's girl I met about a year ago. SMOKIN HOT! like make you mumble/say stupid $hit hot.
Saw her again about 5 months ago...again...what a hottie.
Saw her two weeks ago....no makeup....ooohh....meh....it was the makeup that made her hot.
Like that Seinfeld episode where the woman looks hot in normal light but ugh in shade.
On a slight digression, I remember reading somewhere that amongst men and women that know each other reasonably well, the women start looking uglier to the male eyes over time, why the familar male face looks more attractive to the female over time. I am not necessarily talking partners here, just men and women that interact with each other reasonably regularly through work or sports clubs or wherever.
I have found that to be true myself - I quickly start noticing the flaws in the women I meet...they never look as good to me the second, third, fourth time we meet etc, as compared to first time I saw them.
Maybe it is an evolution thing where us men are programmed to plant our seed in a woman a few times then move on to another when she doesn't start to look so hot anymore.
