"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.

Tips for those who may consider spending 7 days on a floating metal box:

- Dance your ass off. Old people will love you, and introduce you to their single grand daughters.

- Sing karaoke. Old people will love you, and introduce you to their single grand daughters.

- Snooty broads will get lonely by the third day, as all of the men they'd turned down will have moved on (gotta keep hunting when you're on a boat). When their self-esteem dips lowest, they are at their most approachable/horny.

- If someone DOESN'T translate well to your real life, don't hand out your real phone number. Amateur mistake on my part, but hey - it seemed like a good idea after 10 or so drinks.

Seven days later, I'm home with a tan and back at work. I'll come up with more as it sinks in. If you've been on a cruise before and have advice, feel free to post.

It's good to be home.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I did well for myself, and prefer not having too many specifics about my life in print on the internet. PM me if you really need to know more.

I went with two of my friends, a guy and a girl. We split a big room.

Also, rum runner flasks work like a charm for smuggling in alcohol. We brought along a fifth each of El Mayor, Stolichnaya, and Bombay Sapphire.
