"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.

Im talking to 2 chicks 1 who i have known for about 4 years, and there has been some attraction/tension between us the whole time, we have just been involved with other people the whole time, and this chick i just met last week and we went out last friday on our first date. Well, the first girl is going through a breakup right now with a guy she has been with for 3 years, and the 2nd girl went through a breakup with her guy a month ago whom she was with for 4 years. Both of them are playing the "im pretty messed up right now, i dont want to see anybody i just want to sit and cry myself to sleep and wallow in my own self pity" card. Well I want to play rebound guy. Now, chick #1 calls me ****y all the time because i throw C&F at her any chance i get, and I think she likes it, but sometimes its hard to tell if she digs it or is thinking im arrogant. Chick #2 is very shy, so I dont tease her as much, but she told the mutual friend of ours that introduced us that she likes me, and thinks im "nice", but just wants to hang out and get to know me and not jump into another relationship (yeah me too).
Anyway, what can i do to help these fine young ladies through their hardship of breaking up with their boyfriends, and move on to the rebound guy?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I didn't bother reading your post but all I can say is that rebound chicks = A free lay. Just stay away from their personal problems.

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Yup. If your looking for a relationship with them I'd stay far away.

I agree with everyone else. In this situation, I would use rebound guy as carefree sex. This is usually the best time to get a girl in bed. She's vunerable. (sp?)

I'm sure people will disagree with me on this one, but alcohol goes a long way with these chicks. I'm NOT saying to go out and get her crap faced. It doesn't even have to be hard liquor. Hell, you could fake it, and make her think she's drinking alcohol. (think "50 First Dates") The point is, that girls believe they can lower they're guards down when they've been drinking. Which is the reason they keep other women around them when they go out. Panty Protectors.

In my situation, I invited a girl over to the house with intentions on hopping in the hot tub and soaking away our stress. I went all out on drinks and bought the most expensive 6 pack of wine coolers I could find. (a whopping 3 bucks) We then proceeded to the hot tub with the wine coolers and sat in the tub, talking and relaxing. Relaxing turned into a back massage. Back massage turned into a make out session and the rest is history.

Put your own spin on this and you'll be that rebound guy also.

Ingredients:

1. Recently broken up girl
2. A place and time that you two can be alone
3. Small amounts of alcohol or the illussion of alcohol.

I have been the rebound guy and its not fun.. at all
so i would take Kdnash82's advice without the alcky because you dont truely need that if your game is on.

dont listen to her stories about her exes, if she goes down that route, change the subject. talk to her.. get her to relax.. talk as you would usually on a date. get her to talk on subjects where you can relate. pull some moves, and bang, she riding like the rodeo !
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Yep, if you're with a rebound chick for anything more than the few weeks, months of free sex you're going to get burned.
