I don't need any to support me or buy me things. I can take care of myself. I do not like the fox body anyway. The one after, mid 90's is the sh!t; IMHO.
"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.
She keeps on buying me things...

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Not all bells and whistles. Still learning about this one... No real negatives or any red flags... Yet... Again, still investigating.

"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.

Fox is twice lighter, I too like terminator. But also fox.

I would just hold the position with her. Keep doing what you’re doing, enjoying time spent and such.
- It could just be her personality and character. Especially if she’s Latino or something. They are very giving and selfless. May be reading too much in to it all.
Or
- She’s trying to buy your interest by showing you she’s a good home maker and worthy of your deeper investment, would be willing a ready to dive in to the next step.
If there’s no real issues or red flags, there’s no real harm going down. And she knows you’re open to others. And you’re getting laid. Time will tell her current actions; around 4-5 months I’d say.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

She's time she says, but likes gifts on occassion (my gifts to her are my time and activites we do together). I'm acts of kindness and appreciation. I never like the gifts people give to me; unless it's cash (rarely happens nowadays).

Need some pics first. We'd also need a few trials on how you are between the sheets. ;'p
