"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.

Movies that portray men poorly

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Funny you should mention Fantastic Four. Reed Richards should be a born leader, but they gave him loads of insecurities in the first film. Gave him a character arc I suppose, as he grew into his role, but didn't notice too many faults with the second film, unless you're talking about the bit where he got his ass chewed out for doing his stupid dance with some other girls.

how bout the biggest let down of all silver surfer, Who likes to save chicks from missiles because they remind him of his girl friend back home. Reed Richards only purpose is to make his fiancee happy. Human torch turns into a wimp. Every guy in fantastic four is a pansy except dr. doom who they just made detestable.

How about at the end of the movie when silver surfer tells read to thank invisible woman for being the divine voice of reason.

"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.

Owen Wilson's movies are hilarious and "Me, You, and Dupree" allowed me to hit a higher form of consciousness. I finally had an ah-ha moment that laid the entire DJ-ism form into perspective.

I made a post on it a while ago.
