"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.

OVERVIEW: Hey guys after returning from years ago, I have come with a new situation. Im now a junior in college at a state university. I consider myself a good looking guy (Modeled, competed in bodybuilding contests, etc.) but I have never been (that) successful with women.

SITUATION: Been after a coworker for about 6 months, recently weve been hanging out a lot. I would call her a HB7 but with a killer personality(Sophomore in school). She recently stopped seeing a guy I know last week (For 1 year). (She wanted to be in a relationship with him but hes a player). Halloween night she calls me up and we hangout all night (We were both very drunk). Finally kiss her and we make out all night etc... She stopped us from having sex and said, "I dont think im ready for this rightnow". Went to bed and woke up and she said, "We cant do this for a while." Asked her why and she said the same thing, "I dont think im ready for this rightnow". Had breakfast and a great time, been texting ever since.

PROBLEM: Now, I dont know where to go from here... Ive been in relationships, ive had one night stands, ive had casual relationships.... this is a whole other situation. I figure ill keep what ive been doing since it works but this is a girl I could see myself with for a long time. I want to further things but I dont know how to go about doing it. I just wanted your input and advice on what I should do, thanks guys! Glad to be back...
 

"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.

Date other girls. Make her realize that you have your options open. This will make you more attractive to her.

Don't agree to being exclusive until you are having sex. She gets to be your girlfriend, you get to have sex with her. Otherwise, no deal.

Don't be too clingy, and don't be afraid to neg her or disconnect with her just a bit.

I plan to keep my options open and do so but I actually genuinely like this girl, Most girls I would love to F*** and kick to the curb but I want to keep this one.

That's according to her, you have to hear his side of the story. He could say she's the biggest bvtch in the world. (I'm sure she's not, but don't believe everything a HB7 with a killer personality tells you)

Halloween night she calls me up and we hangout all night (We were both very drunk). Finally kiss her and we make out all night etc... She stopped us from having sex and said, "I dont think im ready for this rightnow". Went to bed and woke up and she said, "We cant do this for a while." Asked her why

You should not have asked her why. "Why aren't you ready to have sex with me" = "I need to sleep with you now, otherwise I may lose my game, get sex from another girl, forget how to use it, etc." That doesn't make her feel special, that doesn't make her feel wanted. You have to treat her like she's the only girl in the world for you.

"We can't do this for a while"
"Of course, forgive me if I ever made you feel uncomfortable. Let me take you home."


and she said the same thing, "I dont think im ready for this rightnow". Had breakfast and a great time, been texting ever since.

You can't further things by sleeping with her right away. Build a relationship, make her trust you, make her be comfortable around you, make her have so much fun with you that she forgets about every problem she ever had in her life, and her previous boyfriend.
 

"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.

This is the problem when you put all your eggs in one basket.

She is asking you to wait and I am calling bullsh1t on that. Women with high interest levels "do not wait" or "can't do this right now". I'm also not buying the fact that she stopped seeing the player, because she is crazy about him.

Go date other women, don't wait on her.
