"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 need further clarification on the first move. If you have already made eye contact, perhaps a wave or a smile, what do you do from there? The obvious answer is to go talk to her. But on the rare occasions that i do get to talk to her, i feel like im walking smack into the friend zone. I dont exactly know her that well (though i do have her number), but ive hung out with her/her friends once. I want to let her know im interested in her without giving her the idea that she is being pursued, and hopefully find out if she is interested in me. How can i accomplish this without having to hear LJBF or coming on too strong? If a real DJ could give me some advice or explain what he would do...that would be great. Thanks.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

That's cause they think you're a boneless piece of shat who can't think for himself. Have you ever hung around a guy who just didn't give a crap about anything, and have you ever hung around a guy who was all strung out and whiny.

Who would you hang out? There you go, stop worry, act first, questions later.

and the problem isnt them seeing me as whiny or strung out, they just see me too much as "friend material". I need to be seen as "ide totally F him sideways material". dont get me wrong though, im not just on this site to get laid. I want a gf so i can stop being a loser nobody biatch.
