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.
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.

Where on earth did I say that?! I make $70,000 U.S. per year after tax, I have 2 HB9's in my rotation that I picked up from early July to now. My lifestyle is great, I go on many vacations, drive a nice car, and am in the process of finding a house to buy.The Truth said:Consent, it sounds as if your goal is to be average.
If you are content to settle for average girls, an average job and average lifestyle, go for it, but I want better for myself.

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.
haha glad you agree with the irony, and giving another example of this by replying in my thread of what a KBJ you areShezz said:haha ohhh the irony![]()

You're coming across as desperately trying to prove yourself and "1-up" people here, when nobody cares. That's why people are laughing at you.Consent said:haha glad you agree with the irony, and giving another example of this by replying in my thread of what a KBJ you areNo wonder you've said many times you can't even get girls interested in you. The funny thing is is that MORE THAN ONE of your "friends" you linked on your PUA blog emailed me after reading this thread telling me what a joke they really think of you in just the past 3 days after I told them about this thread. "There were two girls fighting over a short bald guy outside of the bar"?! LMAO...how creative...nice canned routine there. And you STILL get blown out of any quality set. Ouch.
And by the way I'm done with this thread. I'll let a KBJ like you rack up another 2,500 posts in over a year while you can't even get anything higher than a HB7 of quality with your little canned routines.
