"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'm reading The Game at the moment and was wondering what you would do when you've ticked all her IOI boxes and move for the kiss. The response to recieving a no seems a bit cold ("i didn't say you could, it just looked like there was somehting on your mind"). I don't want to read to deeply into what should be simple but what should you do following the rejection (just preparing for all eventualities)? Is it a walk away job or should you try again?

Thanks.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

dude..there are moments in an interaction when it becomes silent or when you are talking there is alot of 'special eye contact'..kinda look at her and smile.look at her face,her cheeks,her eyes,her lips-look up at her eyes and down to her lips again..do this a couple times.Notice her unconcious reactions (blushing,smiling,licking her lips OR looking away suddenly,blinking hard,tensing her jaw),without even saying a word you'll know exactly what's on her mind..and you'll feel what's right to do next...
why ask? or even 'play around' -if it feels right just do it for godsake,don't ruin the mood..if she's into it, she wants to kiss you..remember that and don't dissapoint her! But then again, don't ignore obvious cues of disinterest in that department..you'll just look stupid and like an overaggressive jerk..

Thanks for the advice guys. I understand that her body language is important in knowing when to close but i find it easier going in with a plan (confidence thing more than thinking i'll be more successful). Shezz; that's some pretty sound advice- thanks alot.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
