"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'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.

No way to fight back. The interest is gone. Move on.

You should never wait until she is fading like this. The first sign that she is not putting effort towards you turn your back and walk away. Unfortunately what most men do is that they become more clingy and start trying harder... all this does is reinforces in the female mind that she is better than you, which turns her off. This is why being a challenge to women works... they are genetically disposed to pursue and want men that are better than they are... you put a woman on a pedestal and act like a pathetic butler and she starts to wonder why she's with you.

Plenty of other women in the world, start fresh with a new one.

Yep. I was about ready to become clingy! Thanks for saving my dignity to fight a other day.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

The land of improvement
I don't see a reason to worry about it. She is not interested so why would you try and get her. I always follow this discipline with girls. She either follows me or bye bye . I'm a business man, I don't have time for their sht.

How do you deal with it? Easy, do the same thing and vanish.
