"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'm not sure has anyone spoken about this one but... What do you think about skateboarding. I think it's pretty cool but I don't know what's the image of a DJ... The quiet nice looking guy behind the scene (for which girls scream OH HE'S SO HANDSOME) or the jabby well known to everyone guy. If it's the second i think hip-hop, skateboarding and grafitti do just fine...
 

"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.

The whole "image" thing is exactly why I stopped skateboarding after high school. I didn't like it enough to do competely by myself, but it was fun with friends, until they all turned into the typical skater stereotypes. Aside from that, people always assumed things about me because I was a skateboarder, which became rather annoying in a high school setting where everyone is about drama and stereotypes. I also reached a plateau that I couldn't really get over without putting in some serious time and effort... coupled with having a lot less time once college started.

Really though, if you want to do it, do it. Don't worry about how people are going to percieve you. It was fun for me for a while.

I skate, surf, scuba dive, sea kayak, hike, rock climb, 5k races, Triathlons, etc. I do it for me and not to impress. Do things because you want to not because it looks cool.
