"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.

Classes start monday...I know i can get one eventually. Here is the thing...alot of people here dont have cars...including me. Where can we go on dates? She might not have a car either....In this area the University is the ONLY thing except for a really old movie theater. Any advice on dating at or near a school? This place is in the sticks...Deep in the hills of Kentucky. 9k students go here....more or less. There is a lake...could go there i guess, movie, walks.....any other ideas?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I wasn't kidding. You're in a small town with no car. There's nothing to do there. :D

You can fukk, drink and study... and go to that crappy movie theater you mentioned.

Or you can test yourself and ask if you can change the city in some way, so that it's more fun... Start a club or organize a trip or something...

Cheers

"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 did you expect the little town to be like? An amusement park?

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Movies in your room.

No one really goes on "dates" in college. Trust me.

Dude I go to Marshall U, right next to Kentucky and Ohio in west, VA, I came here and I was the same way, but Huntington is a small city, so I had a few options.
But if no one else drives then your in better shape then if they all did and you did not.

If it's the kind of typical small school IM thinking yours is, then they most have parties and junk to go to, you guys have to have football/Bascketball games right?

Don't worry about the car issue and the lack of things to do, hell you can always invite girls back to your dorm to watch movies right?

I found out college was the easiest environment to pick up girls that iv ever had.

Good luck .-Josh
