"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.

I don't know how people do it, but I can't find any job. I have summited job applications to 5 places now, and most of thsoe are from retail stores and fast food resturant. They never called me or anything. i woudl appreciated if anyone of you guy help me or give me tips.
 

"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.

Was in the same situation very recently. I must have applied to every decent place around here and didnt hear **** from people. I guess all you can do is apply to as many places as you can and hope someone eventually takes the bait.

Apply at 50 more places. When they don't call, it is not a personal rejection of you. They may have not called anyone, and your app is sitting in a stack of other applications.

Go out of your way and annoy managment. Call them once every other day, asking if they got around to your application. Go in person and ask. If possible, try to hand your application to the manager in charge and make a good impression. At least thats how I obtained my jobs. If they dont' notice you, they're not going to hire you. Worst thing that can happen is that you annoy them to much and they wont hire...but highly unlikely, depending on how you approach it IMO.

sitting and waiting is bad idea. call often probably best to do it by hand even though they say by net
 

"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.
