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.
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.
It's been my experience that cold approaches rarely pay off unless you're a super alpha or a celebrity. It's always easier when there's plausibly deniability over something that's going on around you.yungballa said:I meet girls at school or through my friends, like you. I've only ever done ONE cold approach in my life and it turned out horrible, lmao. I hardly lead the convo on for longer than a minute or 2. I still did the approach, though! So, who cares!
I like to be careful with social circle game though. I find that taking risks can be very dangerous for me in social circle game, as doing the wrong thing can easily tarnish reptuation...
I like to know what "super alpha" is? I am planning on doing cold approach this week.BlueAlpha1 said:It's been my experience that cold approaches rarely pay off unless you're a super alpha or a celebrity.
This is just one man's opinion and some people don't see as much value in these things, but I think of a guy who has one thing that stands out very obviously among other guys.yun-j said:I like to know what "super alpha" is? I am planning on doing cold approach this week.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
I have to disagree. I use 100% cold approach and i can say i have 70% success. The reason i do only cold approaches is because of my strict rule ''don't have anything more that friendship with the girls on my circle''.BlueAlpha1 said:It's been my experience that cold approaches rarely pay off unless you're a super alpha or a celebrity.

"What time does this place close?"
"Look, there's a fight over there."
"Do you where I can find store X?"
When I was in Europe, 'lost tourist' game yielded some friendly responses because it's far less awkard than "I was looking at you from over there and just had to say hello!"
except places where you really shouldn't meet women.Poon King said:You can meet women anywhere.
There are NO rules.
There is a difference between "can" and "should". You CAN meet women anywhere.devilkingx2 said:except places where you really shouldn't meet women.
doctor's offices(sick people), clinics(people with STDs), mental asylums(literally crazy people), therapist/psychologist offices(people with issues and baggage), hospitals(especially the mental ward and the ER), prisons(felons, scammers and psychopaths), etc.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
If you take cold approaches seriously you are generally going to have a bad time. You really need to not give a sh*t for the best results. The moment you become concerned about "succeeding" and grabbing their number, you've lost. The focus should be to have fun. You should think of cold approaching as an opportunity to talk with someone and enjoy yourself. It doesn't matter who you are, if the person you're approaching detects even the slightest amount of desperation or insecurity the situation automatically becomes unnatural and awkward.yun-j said:I like to know what "super alpha" is?

That's true,i can confirm it myself. Thanks to my work i talk to more than 100 people per day and i have developed my character to cope with every situation no matter if it's awkward or funny.ImTheDoubleGreatest! said:That top 1% of social skills by the way have great social skills because they STRONGLY believe that they do and are EXTREMELY comfortable with themselves. And when when you believe as strongly as that, you no longer think it, you just are it.
