"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.

Just out of curiosity, I just wanted to know what the reactions in general were for the show for all the DJ's here.

I've heard a lot of mixed reviews, some people thought it was great since it brought all this underground stuff to light and has been inspiration for all the AFC's out there, but some people think it's negative since it's kind of giving our "secrets" away.

Anyway, feel free to leave your two cents, would love to hear it.

"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.

I never watched season 2.

Once I learned that guy who won season 1 was a model/actor I assumed the whole thing was scripted. Needless to say I was disgusted. I didn't even bother watching season 2.

An interesting note, is that I am a member of the Casanova Crew, a SoCal lair. Every month we have guest speakers. This Sunday we are having BradP as well as Simeon whom you should know.

BradP is well known, but I have no idea what to expect from Simeon (the guy who won season 2)

Where is this "lair" meeting taking place, and how does one go about getting in to check out the speakers?

I watched Parts of season 2 including the episode where you got eliminated :whistle:

anyway my question to you is this, I've heard rumors that some of the it is staged, like some of the girls at the grocery store where "plants" etc etc

Personally I'm glad if you got something out of it, but I agree with people who feel ike its giving away "secerts". I don't do canned crap myself but I had a buddy who was big into the "opinon" opener and he had me try it, and a girl called me out on it. After that I never did it again,

Of course that's just my opinon

"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 don't think it gave secrets away, because most men will never bother trying to change, and it actually works. In the show, you got thrown out there into clubs and had to change, in most mens lives, they can't be bothered to change.

I think it's best not to use canned material, and to use something that you've made up on your own. E.g. Asking their opinion on dental floss or if they like tattoos on girls or if they saw the fight outside is going to get you called out eventually, asking them if they're having fun isn't (or something a little more creative than that.) If you're in a supermarket, and they have a few dozen bananas, ask them why (again, a little more creative than that.)

It actually showed me a few things I was doing wrong. I always walked up to women with some variation of "Hi, what's your name?" This would work sometimes, since I'm pretty good looking, but it didn't really leave them guessing as to why I was talking to them. I'd always be facing them directly, even if they weren't, so I gave them higher value.

After watching the show, I decided to read Mystery's book, and he has a lot of useful little tricks and games that work very well.

I watched both seasons for entertainment but personally i think you can learn much more from watching keys to the vip.
