"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 really need some experts opinions. I'm 22 years old and I'm in college. In order to graduate, I need to study and put alot of effort to my major which is engineering. However, I'm a virgin and I really want to improving my dating and sarging skills as well. But we all know this takes time and effort, especially for dating noobs like me.
I don't want to get distracted between college degree and dating. I know education is important, but I'm 22 years old. I'M GETTING OLD.

How do I balance this out?
 

"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.

I'm electrical engineering. Study during the weekdays and don't fall behind. There's a lot of math to learn and fundamental models to master. Commit yourself to going out to clubs or parties Friday and Saturday nights. If you're on top of your work, go out on other nights too. If for what ever reason, you have to make a choice, choose studying over girls. That's just basic priorities

But from what I've seen, it's totally possible to have an active social life, even as an engineering major. The problem is a lot of engineering students have crappy time management skills, and end up wasting hours messing around on their laptops and talking about nonsense instead of actually studying.

and you're not old
