"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.

hi!

in short:

how do you tell a girl that you hardly ever see in real life (and weekly on chat) that you would dump your girlfriend for her, if she would want to date you?

so:
if she likes me and want to date me, I would break up for it
if she doesn't like me or want to dat me, I wouldn't break up.

yeah, ****ed up eh?:p

please just answer the question. Moral issues about liking girl A while having a relationship with B don't interest me:p
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I suggest you rethink your strategy.

There's no need to tell this girl you'll dump your actual gf to just go out for her.

You're also implicating that there's a possibility of you DOING the same unto her.

It seems like you've lost interest in your current girl. You should either break up, and try building a relationship with this new girl, or continue swimming in the sea until you find another perfect match.

sorry, could you rephrase that?

the girl I'm talking about knows that I am in a relationship by the way (and she knows a lot about it, she asks me from time to time)

I'm not really not interested in my current relationship...it's just that we have had a lot of arguments and we're trying another approach (my idea).
that approach is probably gonna work, but I just want to make sure that there are some other fish in the sea, ready for the grab in case something goed wrong.

So: I want that girl to know that I would go for her if she would for me. That doesn't mean that I would do that too...I just want her to know that I would be willing to.

So how do you tell her you like her and wouldn't mind going for her (instead of current relation)?
Also, how do you do that without sounding AFC?

Ok, I understand your case better now.

However, I would still stick to what I said before.

If you're going to tell this new girl that you'll drop your current relationship for her, it could taint your image as a boyfriend material.

Seriously, she's not going to feel "special" because you're putting her over your current girlfriend.

I've been through your situation -- the whole argument ordeal. If all you guys do is argue, take a break. Cool things off. Take this as an opportunity to date other girls.

yeah!

you know exactly what I mean:)
By telling her that I would sacrifice, I only come off as being like jet another AFC...which I'm not.

Now about the other suggestion(breaking up)..
I told her that from now on, we're free to do and go like we wish. If there is something important (like family that has to go to hospitals, people who die and stuff) we're "allowed" to call. And we see eachother once a week (I decide when).
If this is going well, we might try more times a week. If this is going bad, it's easier to break up.

Now, this girl (not my GF) doesn't know this situation. Don't feel like explaining her either.

Now...how do I tell her that I'd go for her? (and even more important, how do I know that she wants to date me?)

Good luck on this one guys;):p
 

"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.
