"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.

So, I've been reading this website for the past few days and I must say that I'm very, very impressed w/ the content here. I had one imp question:

So I saw an example of the below conversation posted and I was very impressed -
YOU: You are kinda hot...but you could never be my girlfriend.
HER: What? Why do you say that???
YOU: I only date nice girls and you have trouble written all over you.
HER: No I am nice! Really!
YOU: Right...sure.
HER: (Trying to convince you she is nice)

But here's the issue...
Imagine the very same conversation:

YOU: You are kinda hot...but you could never be my girlfriend.
HER: Who said I want to date you?

How do you respond to that. Thankfully, I thought of that before actually trying it out. I know that sometimes you're in a vibe and a girl is not going to say "who said I want to date you"...but if the vibe isn't right; 9 out of 10 times a girl is going to say that. How do you go from there?

--------------------------------------------------

Part 2 of my q deals with approaching women at bars/clubs/etc. Should you approach a women that you may like who's part of a group?

Also, I was at a bar here recently in Miami...I saw this girl constantly looking at me. The problem was that..I was at the bar when I first saw this girl walk into the bar w/ her friend. Before we bought drinks, she and her friend was approached by a group of guys and they seemed to have a good time. Yet, she kept looking at me. You know how you get a feeling of someone is looking at you? and then I'd turn around and find her looking at me. And the moment I'd look at her she'd look away. So...how do you deal w/ this. Btw...this girl was a 8/10 and her friend was a 9/10.

Looking forward to some of y'alls expert suggestions...
 

"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.

Yes, you should. Read for example Mystery method or Juggler to get some good ideas how to do this.

*Girl glancing IbleedCrimson* So...how do you deal w/ this.
For instance by approaching her. Check her out from top to bottom and top again. Eye contact, smile, walk slowly to her, give your hand and introduce yourself. Shake hands with her friend(s) also. Start gaming them.

Good luck & keep reading this site.

First situation, my reply would be I never said I wanted to date you and change topic.

Second situation, shes wondering why the other guys are all over her trying to impress her while your sitting there calmly just looking, you best bet would have been to wait for her to start dancing then move in and do your thing.

She's eating you with with her eyes, or undressing you with her eyes, either way who cares she is looking at you, paying more attention to you, go over talk to her and close it.

How do you respond to that.
You've been looking at me for the past half hour, what do you think!

I have a quick mind ^_^ I like my quick mind... if I can' think of anything I will just stand there and say" I'm sooooo confused :|"
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

In a serious tone? Shouldn't happen, ever. I reject that frame and scenario completely.

The reply you've set up is a result of serious miscalibration. It can only happen when a guy who has NOT established value and generated attraction runs the above line.

Like if a Pointdexter walked up to Jenna Jamison and said "Haha you could never be my girlfriend."

He would be trying to flip the script on her, but the value gap is so huge, and Jenna is SO unattracted to Pointdexter, that she just goes "ew" and walks away: the point is, HE could never be HER boyfriend (not the reverse).

See the diff?

If you DO have attraction, and the girl says this, it will be with a flirty laugh or challenge, and is just her busting on you....

..and only THEN are the C&F lines in this thread applicable.

if you roll out all the C&F replies people are giving above and she's NOT ATTRACTED and doesn't see you as equal or higher value, it will fall flat on its face.

[Edit: 100th post! Yeehaw....I'm going outside.]

her:who said i wanted to date you

YOU: oh puulease lady, you got gotta have this guy written all over you, well I ain't that easy sister, it's gonna take more than a push up bra and a tan to keep my attention.

You: clean the wax out of your ears I said GIRLFRIEND, I never said anyhting bout a date. A date to you probably means dinner and a movie, a girlfriend is someone that follows my lead and can handle a little challenge.....you obvisously are not up for the challenge.

You: date.......sheesh slow down sister, I hardly even know you and already your are contemplating a date with me. You gotta earn that privledge by being special. You got bad girl written all over you.

You: what you les or bi-sexual, your man has a chain around you and decides who you associate with.

You: thats your best comeback...PFFT no wonder you want a date with me you suck a flirting. Look when a REAL man hits on you, you gotta do better than that lame line. You might wanna try something like " Hi my name is Candy, I think you are really hot, heres my number"....instead of that playing hard to get oldschool crap you tried to use on me.

You: you are going to have to do better than that sister, do men actually fall for that "playing hard to get" rountine.

You: oh it's on sista, we got a live one here, finally a chic that knows how the game is played. Whats your name..........let me guess Bambi, no wait Kelli with and I..............

You: Bad girl is in da house.........hmmm a challenge, bout time.

You: OH HERE WE GO.........it's on sista, dems fighting words

You: well you can start by buying me a drink and we can discuss the 10 reasons why you want me.........what you can't afford to buy a guy 1 simple drink......well allow me...........waitress a glass of warm water for the ice lady.

You: who says you can afford me, you probably work at Micky D's.

You: who said I would allow you to seduce me, I aint that easy sister.....you might have better luck with one of those nice, boring guys over there.
