"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.

Cheryl Winter spent $500 for Hartford-based Travelers Cos. Inc. to cover her daughter’s $50,000 destination wedding last October in New Orleans, where her biggest concern was a potential hurricane. The weather co-operated, but the limousine never showed up. Her daughter took a taxi cab to the church, and they used the insurance policy to claim the deposit money they couldn’t get back from the limo driver.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

That seems like a simple variation of travel insurance. I don't see a problem with it.

I was kind of hoping the article was about a guy who bought a $10,000,000 "Wife Gains Fifty Pounds After Marriage" insurance.

You'd be surprised at the things you can get covered. . So long as somebody's got a measurable, financial risk they want to mitigate, and somebody's got a policy to sell, it's all good.

Farmers insure against the weather, Academy Awards and other shows that are ad revenue dependent insure in case of some kind of "breaking news event," athletes insure their limbs, and even here in Japan, people buy "Hole in one" insurance, as it's custom to buy loads of gifts for friends if you get a hole-in-one.

There is not an insurance company in the world that could afford to offer a policy on what women will and will not do in a marriage.
