"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.

I work with these 2 pretty hot chicks among others and they both used to have semi crushes on me from what i have been told...however, lately they are both so shy and distant acting that it is really starting to annoy me...

For whatever reason, they both are trying to ignore me now or act very distant and it's just plain distracting...i just like to go into work and finish without any distractions...

Example...i was in the bathroom the other day and someone knocks on the door...3 minutes later i come out and it's one of the girls i am mentioning waiting right there for the bathroom facing me...she sees me and does an instant about face and turns around n my face without saying anything and walks away without acknowledging me or anyhting...just freakin awkward feeling...i don't even want to be with her or bang her...but these little acts of ignoring or whatever they are, are really just starting to tick me off...i felt like saying, for gods sake go use the freakin bathroom like what you were waiting to do and quit acting so damn weird...she does little crap like this to me all the time...i am just cordial acting toward her, nothing special...

Another one who is a secretary will come into my room while i am teaching because its her job and bring the controller to the AC...don
't ask weird rule made by our boss....but lately she will ignore me and walk right past me in this super shy manner and hand the controller to the co-teacher even if i stick my hand out for it...and i know i shouldn't care and be indifferent, but these 2 are actually starting to make me angry feeling...i feel like telling both of them to grow up and act professional...i guess i should mention that i am in Taiwan and the girls here tend to be very shy acting around guys they like or are attracted to if they don't know them too well...

Any ideas on how to break their shields or whatever they are just to not make an awkward work environment?

And i am not interested in dating either of them as i have to change my original contract and stay at this job longer than planned for financial reasons.
I almost just feel like telling both of them i am gay just to make them freakin relax.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

I don't really get along with any of the young women at my work, there's only a couple I can even hold a conversation with while the rest I don't bother to give the time of day to anymore. They all used to be nicer when we started working there (a lot of them were hired around the same time as me) but things mysteriously deteriorated. I used to wonder if there was some rumor going around but I never heard anything. However I don't give a damn anymore as I don't need their attention anyway.

The older women on the other hand just seem to adore me for some reason, maybe they're just old enough to have decent taste in men unlike these young *****es.

You answered your own question. Stop caring about what they think or do. That doesn't mean sink down to their level and be petty like they are.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
