"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.

I started working at a electronics store ( I am not going to say the name ) but

lets jut said it ends with shack , any how. I meet people there everyday ,we

have this policy , whenever a costumer walks in , we have to greet them

within the 1st 20 seconds they enter the store. but my real question is , lately

, because of the holiday seasons, many chicks have walked in looking for gifts

, for their BF's or paying their cell phone bills, / buying cell phone , and I am

having a bit of a problem , with openers, I know my work place has the

perfect set up for a good opener, * asking them questions about products

they might be looking for . but I end up talking too much about what I am

selling them instead of getting their phone numbers.

because of this, I have missed many opportunities to meet new women , also

my store is next to a women's boutique ,kinda like a wet seal / forever 21

type of store . so many hot chicks pass by and go inside .

I have never worked in a sales driven environment , I never have problems approaching at party's / clubs. or even women at the mall .

I just don't know why? I am having this problem at this new job of mine, I want to be bagging these girls that walk by .

any pointers ad tips are welcomed .

thanks for your time .
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

It's my general opinion to not **** where you eat. That is all.

Hitting on customers seems like it could be just as dangerous as coworkers. If a customer complains, you'll be almost guaranteed to lose your job.

It's a fine line. I used to work at FCUK when I lived in Chicago. Our manager want us to flirt (non-sexually of course) with our customers. So I'd be over flattering the women and at the same time selling them more crap that they didn't need ("Hey this dress would really bring out your eyes"). It was a cool job, I just wish I had been on SS back then, probably would have been really awesome at my job.
 

"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.

I don't think it's bad to "spit game" at work as long as you realize that you are at work and don't go over board. Like I am not sure if I would go for a number unless she seemed really interested in you and if you did I would make it real casual so she doesn't get creeped out. I work at Panera Bread part time and I am always being friendly with the cute girls that come in, you just have to know how to read them and remember to keep working.

Pff don't listen to these replies.

"Spit game" (??why do you call it that ??) as much as you want at work. Just be really friendly, and lay off a tiny bit more than if you were out somewhere. If you feel a spark between someone, then go for it.

Unless you are a creep and only "Spit game" at chicks to sleep with them, and you are a social friendly person in general....You will not get any complaints. Infact it will IMPROVE Your position at your job. People will like you, and if you find a chick on the way then its a bonus.

I work a retail job and I'm friendly to almost everyone that comes in, and I always meet new people and make new friends. It's great. It is a good place to practice your social skills.

so I guess I just have to learn how to read them a lil better .

thank u all .
 

"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.
