"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.

Guys,

What would you do in a situation where you tell a woman to go out with you, and then she agrees but also says she´s going to invite female friends of her´s?


Thanks
 

"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.

I mean, should I go in spite of her friend go too or should I just tell her to forget it?

Well personally,if I were the one who asked and invited her out,if the whole subject of a date was MY idea,then I would tell her no.


If she had told me she was going to invite her friends along,I would have responded like....

me:Hey look,I asked YOU out. I wanted to see YOU.
It's a date,not a girl's night out. You can hang out with your friends whenever you want,but tomorrow (or whenever the date is) you're hanging with me"


That's what I would say,and if she said that she wouldn't go unless her friends could come too,then I'd say...

me:Alright,then forget it then. Bye."


Then I'd leave.



I don't know why she said that to you,but it may just be a lack of comfort.
You may just need build more comfort in order to make her feel comfortable being alone with you.


What you should do is schedule the date in a public place where there are lots of people and spend time there.

That should help her to loosen up to where she'll feel more at ease being alone with you.

Here is food for thought...

My current girlfriend pulled that stunt on me for our first solo date. We had gone out with a group of mutual friends once before. I called her to invite her out solo... and she asked if she could call one of our mutual friends...

Turns out she did it because she was nervous... but years later we're together.

So there is no right or wrong answer. Just BUILD ATTRACTION. its the only thing you have the power over.
