"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.

" You are a unique, worthy individual not because of your status, goals, and external qualities but because you say you are."

- Wayne Dyer

I know It's been preached on this site a lot of times, but I'm in an energize and happy mood tonight that I felt like expressing this. When you Love yourself and accept yourself - Accept who you are as a person and as a human being - Your strengths, your " flaws" and " imperfections", Accept and make peace with your past and your many " past miseries" that have shaped the remarkable and unique character which you are today.

Self acceptance makes you less critical and judgementive, more accepting and tolerating of others and open to loving them for what they are. With the Art of Self acceptance you are basing your self worth not on external values such as your achievements, materialistic possessions and such and such but from a higher level of spiritual consciousness - A Simple love for life and others.

Learn to love and accept yourself and you will be open to loving others.
 

"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.
