"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.

Okay maybe not like that...
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Recently (this year) I really changed my style. Went from relaly ghetto look, To half dress half ghetto look (using my dress pants with the ghetto shirts) now im wearing some ghetto shirts and alot of collard shirts, they go good with my dress pants/shorts (D!ckies). More than doubling my comments. (Still wear shoes like reebok classics and etc). I got kind of a different look than any other guy in my school.

Yah I love my white reeboks. The only problem is if I'm going to wear my white reeboks, I gotta dress down a little. Then I have more of an 'Usher' type style.

I prefer my classy though. Man I wish I had a digital camera.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I've been through a similar change. I went from ghetto-ish, to decently dressed, to preppy, and now I'm very fond of my dress pants, button ups, dress shoes, fake diamond earrings, short spikey hair...just all around clean cut and stylish. They notice [/QUOTE

you sound just like me. used to where those pinwheel fitted caps, jerseys, and such. now i regularly where button-ups, sometimes dress pants too. i still where a matching pinwheel hat once a week, but not in an attempt to be a wigger:D . only if it matches my button-up.

it seems that is a popular change nowa days. ghetto to semi-ghetto or ghetto to preppy. that ghetto stuff used to be cool i think but after a while it gets played out. change is good. you will get good results if you make the right change. any one else who thinks other wise :p
