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.

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.
New link since YouTube pulled the original. Make note of the part about discussing politics, it'll explain why political discussions are not allowed in this forum.Francisco d'Anconia said:
Stupid people: what would we laugh at without them?Bible_Belt said:Kimberly A. Baker, 22, of Warrensburg, N.Y., went
to court to ask the judge to order the father of her 2-year-old
daughter to help support the girl. She identified the father as a 16-
year-old boy she knows. The judge did some quick math: Baker was 19
when she was impregnated by the 13-year-old, and Baker was arrested on charges of second-degree rape of a minor. She faces up to 7 years in prison.

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 love how he says "sloowly...slooowly". :crackup:Francisco d'Anconia said:I think we need a bit more levity around here. Did you guys know that The Count from Sesame Street was a master PUA? Yeah, really! He even made a video expounding about his greatness, check it out.
