"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.

Ok I know how all you guys feel on "looks" and how much you hate them, but there's something I'm really curious about...your hair.

I usually keep my hair short, and girls generally think it looks better. However I've noticed that during the beginning of every relationship my hair was much longer (it's wavey/curly so girls think it's "cute").

Have any of you noticed you get more looks (in a good way) by the ladies when you had your hair a certain way? (I've usually gotten less when mine was long).
 

"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.

Short = athlete, business man, stern, masculine (although sometimes, long hair can be even more manly than short hair, it depends how it's done).

Long = artist, musician, sensitive, down to earth.

Women flip flop on this issue a LOT. Most important thing is to choose a hair style that fits your personality.

Many of the best actors in Hollywood begin assuming their character starting with their hair. As in, the hair is the first thing which shapes this personality and helps them to get into character.

Brad Pitt and Rainn Wilson have said this in several interviews. Many other actors have said it as well... just their names escape me.

Choose hair that best unleashes your current personality.

If you're in an artsy phase of your life, play that up and get into character. If you're at a stage where you hit the gym and play sports 5 days a week, become that man with your hair.

I've always had my hair short but a few months ago I started growing it long. Now I'm at a point where it is too much maintainence and I'm thinking of cutting it short again!

As far as attracting the opposite sex goes, I attracted more women with shorter hair but better quality ones with longer hair (better looking and seem to be more inclined to stick around for longer).

Honestly, do what you think is best for you rather than what you think will be most attractive to women, you are #1, not some hoe.

I have had a shaved head for 10 years.

I am now in the process of growing it long and then I'm going to make it dreadlocks.

So far I have to say.

Closely shaved: looks 7/10

Longer shaved: looks 5/10

Hair: Unstyled: 3/10

Hair: styled (beckham style): looks 8/10

Hair syled (all crazy and messy): Looks 9/10

:rockon: Long hair is metal! Women seem to love the man-mane, goes with my whole skater/rocker look pretty well.:rockon:
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
