"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.

Inside her mind
I know lot of posters say that you should call first after a number close
however, after an experitment, I found that I got better reactions after texting because, there is no awarkedness in terms of a first convo. THink about it you meet a chick at the club you number close within a few to several mintues. she might have been drunk, she might just have been polite who kows. Do you really think she is gonna pick up when she sees some random number? most likely not. 90% of women love to text, their addicted....

"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.

that is why you ALWAYS try to build some comfort before closing.

My friend who reads pick up material on sites and sh!it, told me to text "hi", then immediately after she responds, you call her.
Not sure if I like that idea, but to each his own.

It's a tough call - literally. I like to make a phone call after a number close, but sometimes I think a text is safer. It all depends.

If it works for you, stick with it.

But here is a neat little thing I do, which always gets great results. This works well for both day and night game, but if you're at a party or in a club, you may want to take her somewhere quieter first.

You meet her, you chat, there's attraction and some comfort, you grab her number. Now, call her while you're with her, if she looks at you like "wtf?", throw out a tease like "what, I thought we were tight, and you won't even answer my call?!?"

So she answers, and you two role play. This is great because you've talked to her, when she's out, probably in a good mood. So when you call her the next day, there will be less awkwardness, and she knows how to act on the phone with you. This also already anchors her memories of good mood/fun times to being on the phone with you.

Really use the role play for a bit of fun, e.g.

Me: Heya how you doin love?
Her: blah blah whatever, you?
Me: Yeah not too bad, I met this cute chick, blah blah (make fun of her a bit in third person, like you are great friends with the person on the phone, but have only just met the person in person)
Her: giggle whatever, blah blah
Me: Yeah, it's kinda weird, I've just met her but like, we have plans and everything, I dunno, should I flake out on her?
Her: Noooo no no no blah blah
Me: Yeah, oh wait hold up a sec, I might have to go...

Then you look at her and go "Ahh nah it's fine, she's on the phone" ;)

So yeah, play with it a bit, I find it makes later phone game much easier. You can also throw in a "I dunno, should I kiss her?" if you think you can get away with it.

Oh, and a good thing to do is when you get her number, and she gets yours, save your name together, something funny like "super hot fun awesome guy", or even "really really lame guy". This way, she'll have a little giggle when you call her the next day.

Make it FUN, keep it LIGHT.

Hope this helps, good luck mate.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

nice tip. I'm gonna use that. Classic role play.

Also, you can bring up something you were talking about when you had met her. This way she'll get into the same mental space as when you had met her.

Its like a video game. To use the save feature, you gotta use the load feature as well.

Yeah cheers, but you have to keep in mind that in her eyes, you are now the fun guy. If any future interactions seem stale it will seem incongruent.

This happened to me a fair bit, when I was into theory and gimmicks and didn't have basic game down.

It's a solid method, and I've used it before.

You can't hear nervousness or awkward pauses in a text message.

But I've also found that if you can master a phone conversation, there are quite a few advantages over texting.

- A confident voice with emotion is very sexy to women. It comes down to sense deprivation. If the woman can't see you, she focuses more on your voice, and if you are a talented speaker this can work very well for you.

- You can't convey emotion nearly as well in a text message. Sure, you can put a smiley face or an lol, but it just isn't the same as hearing a chuckle. There are just some nuances you can't pick up on without voice.

- There is a delay between communications with texting. It gives the woman time to be careful about what she says, and is a great opportunity for woman-ese. On the phone you can catch her more off-guard and get a more direct response from her.

- If you have friends with you, they can help out by creating background noise. Not annoying, completely disruptive background noise, but having laughing friends and quiet music in the background projects the impression that you are a fun person who hangs out in fun places. It speaks volumes louder to the woman than just seeing words that say you're hanging out with some friends.

Just my thoughts...
 

"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.
