"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.

They called me to see if I can model at a runway fashion show in the middle of the mall in about a week.

I'm excited, yet nervous at the same time. Any tips?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

Dude, it is a mall fashion show. Just relax. You are not exactly some 14 year old Lithuanian tart that is wondering if she will be selected for the spring/summer D&G show in Milan. Personally, I think it is kinda gay...But hey, whatever floats your boat. Best of luck ;).

Haha...Thanks

It STARTS OUT as a mall fashion show. Then it progreses to Dolce&Gabana Versachi, Valenti, Gucci, etc.

HAHA

My best tip is to workout and drink lots of water to look your best and RELAX. Ive been asked if I wanted to model, I didnt want to do it but how did you find out it was legit, because when I was approached I wasnt sure if it was legit or not. Or did you find an agency on your own?

If you were ASKED to model, then it means that you SHOULD model. Look for a modeling SCHOOL in your area. Then they worry about the rest...

Check your pm.
