"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.

Okay for 30/40+ women to live with parents, but not men?

I saw this dating profile of a woman, age 40, no kids, never married. She seems kind of flippant about the fact she lives with her parents in a well known retirement community. Yes, she lives in a retirement community...with her parents. She's pretty hot as she's a tanned Asian woman...and she had a couple of bikini pics up.

She'd be good for something temporary since she is local and hot ladies are rarely UN-attached in small towns...so I'm guessing she just moved here.

If a man was in that situation...women would label him a social pariah, yes?

She then explains this situation would be later discussed with a man should he be curious about her living situation. So she at least acknowledges her situation, then mentions she had adult ADD or something like that. She's a woman-child? (see man-child)

No kids, surprisingly.

I also went out on a date with a 45 year old woman that NEVER moved out...not even for college or "moved out and moved back in" What's sad, she's been a school teacher for 20+ years and she's likely been socking away a lot of money.

She actually lives with her mother and grandmother (Father and mother is divorced)

She's still going to be living with them when she retires?

Her reason, "I don't like to live by myself, I'm sociable, I like people around...must be a woman thing."

A woman thing??

I also have a female neighbor, mid-to-late 30s that is still living with her parents. Yes, and she's cute, too....she works at some small food shop that her mother opened up. She really doesn't do much for that job, and gets paid for it.

I dunno, but I'm curious as to what kind of guy these women are looking for if they are living comfortably under their parents roof? If they find out if some guy is living with their parents, are they going to say, "OH! I live with my parents too! You turn me on!!"
 

"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.

Because men only date women for their looks.

Women date men for their looks and a WHOLE lot more. @AlphaNate listed some of them.
