"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.

Tomorrow is the Easter "Parade," along 5th Ave in NYC. The reason why I have parade in quotes is because the Easter Parade isn't actually a parade, it's actually a promenade between 49th and 57th Streets. The parade is an excuse for chicks to wear these wacky Easter bonnets, but I'm sure there will be some chicks wearing some regular attire. What Rex plans on doing is I'm going to put on my fineries, (namely my smoking jacket,) and see if I can come up on a little something around there. This is a challenge for your boy because as you all know Rex suffers from approach anxiety.

What I purpose for all of y'all is that you do what Rex is going to do, put on your fliest gear, hit an area with lots of foot traffic and do some day game cold approaches. Believe it or not, day game is a lot easier when your dressed fly, girls are more receptive to you when you're suited an booted and they're more apt to hear what you're hollerin.' Good luck y'all.
 

"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.

smoking jacket? What are you Hugh Hefner? lol

Why don't you wear a wacky get up and tell them you're in the parade?

It Was a Wash

This didn't go as I initially planned. There weren't any hot chicks at the Easter Parade, and it seems as if people were out of town as I walked around the city.

If you have approach anxiety, you should have made sure you approached chicks anyway, get used to it because when that hottie comes along you're not going to be in the right frame of mind.

Wright, you're right, :)crackup: Rex made a funny,) seriously though. My issue isn't having random conversation because there plenty of people to have mundane conversations with. Actually, I have no problem with walking up to a chick and just talking about whatever cross my mind. I literally have "approach anxiety," in the terms when I find a chick attractive, I over think it and bunch of other thinks we're not suppose to do.
 

"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.
