"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.

This is taken from the book "Models" by Mark Manson that someone had posted on here earlier this week for download.. This excerpt really struck me as good solid advice when it comes to picking up women.

In case you didn't get it, the rating scale is a pedestal. The concept of "high value" is a pedestal. Coming up with special openers is a pedestal. Most PUA theory is a pedestal. Believing you have to treat her differently in any way because of how she looks is a pedestal.

I recommend guys switch to a binary system of 1 or 0. A "1" is a woman you'd like to be with. A "0" is a woman you wouldnt. Why you want to be with her or not, how she looks, whether she's just okay looking or the most beautiful woman on the planet-none of that matters. Either you're interested or not. The rest doesn't matter.

And in the meantime, get your life together. Stop caring about looks so much. Treat her like you'd treat anybody else. Stop approaching her to prove something to yourself. Stop treating her like a trophy or an achievement or a merit badge. Just talk to her. Just the fact that you talk to her like a normal human being with confidence and civility will immediately differentiate you from 99% of the other guys she meets.

Stop using "lines" or "openers" to get women. Stop settling for trash. Just treat her like a normal person who you can be romantic with. Fvck these "games" that they play. If they play them, and you're not willing to put up with it, then you're letting yourself down by not being honest with yourself. Move on from it. Don't "NEXT" her.. Don't whine about her playing games with you to her.. Just move on. If she disrespects you, why should you even owe her an explanation?
 

"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.

Nice. I like the decision making power of that model. With the 1 or 0 binary system, you can more easily pull the plug at any time without justifying self-compromising accommodations. Disrespect? Sorry, you're a 0. High maintenance? Sorry, you're a 0. Suggesting a threesome with her best friend? Great, you're now a 1. Trying to p whip me? Sorry, you're a 0. ... Next!

decent idea no doubt but probably hard to follow for most people.
