"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.

I've been hooking up with girls but having a tough time keeping them interested and around for future hookups. After hooking up with a babe, in order to keep them around, how often do you call em or text them? I know for a fact that girls hate being texted at 3 am on sat, because obviously she knows all you want to do is feel her guts. Now I know there are times when all you want is a one night stand, but I'm talking aout the ones who are hot and you wanna see again. I've been having problems keeping girls around, and i have no idea. basically it goes like this, i attract, we either make out or hookup, and then i usualy never hear from her again.

I've tried calling the next day and texting every now and then just to say hi. That didn't work. Then I tried being distant and calling or texting her maybe once every two weeks. That didnt work. What the hell do I have to do to keep them around and interested in me?!! If i try to keep in touch, I look needy and desperated. If i play hard to get or distant, then she thinks I'm an ******* and I wanted was sex. WTF!! Please tell me what works for you...

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

You could be bad in bed and/or acting needy. If you are good in bed and don't give off a desperate/clingy/needy vibe, they will be eager to get back with you. Maybe tell us more. Where are you meeting these girls (class, work, the bar), how long are you waiting before you bang them, how are you framing your interactions with them (you should be framing all your interactions in a way that conveys that you are the prize to be won over), etc.

I would say as a general rule, I don't text at all unless it's in response to a text I got, and only if I know I can't get a hold of them over the phone at the moment. Ideally I just make a brief phone call and set up a time to meet up.

I usually meet these girls at bars/clubs. I just focus on my job during the week, it's only the weekends where I sarge. And i'm pretty sure i'm not bad in the sack. I think I come off as being needy, so maybe i'll just be a jerk. Though the last girl I never called and never heard from her again. Oh, well, guess they're all *****s. No complaints here. or maybe it's just L.A.

Not really sure what it could be. Maybe these girls felt slutty after they boned you. Who knows?

Usually after a one night fling with a chick, after I leave or they leave, I'll send them a text message telling them that I had a good time and that we should get together sometime soon in the future. I'll even throw out an event that's coming up soon so she'll think that I'm not just calling her up for another rump in the bed.

My friends were in LA this past weekend and said they had a blast. They met some chicks that live up there, so most likely there will be another trip in the future. If it happens, and you're at least 21, lets hang out.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I really don't think it has to do with when or why or how often you call or text them. You might need to step up your game in the bedroom. If you are only providing a ho hum experience for them then they probably won't be coming back for seconds...........
