"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.

In middle school I played a lot of sports and I was good at them too, but I became discouraged in high school by some ******* coach and decided not to play. A lot of people at my school play sports and all they talk about is practice.... Does it get any better? should I give in and join a sports team even though I really don't want to? Will people eventually chill out about their sports and not talk about it 24/7 or will the amount of people playing sports diminish?

I'll be a sophomore at the start of the year and want to know if becoming an DJ is much harder if you're not on a sports team. I don't really have a lot of good friends at the high school I'm going to due to transferring to it from outside the school's district.

A little info about my school- middle class, middle of central texas, and my class of 2011 has around 800 students.
 

"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.

Football + track


I'm 6'2 and weigh 170lbs

I used to be really fat, so that is why I never got into basketball.

HS football is always respected (worshipped) in Texas. It can't hurt your reputation to play.

Sports are good because they keep you busy and give you goals. Girls want guys who have a life and things that are important to them. Obviously, never do a sport it unless you actually ENJOY it.

I think it's too late to join football, and I only enjoyed the games. Our school's football team sucks anyways the player who scored the most points was the kicker.


Does anyone here know if it's easy to learn lacrosse? There is a lacrosse team at my school, but I don't know if they teach new players. They say they welcome all players, but prefer players who have played before.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I play lacrosse and I recommend it. It's a lot of fun.

It takes a little time to learn, but if you practice at home a little, you'll be fine. Every player is new at some point. The equipment CAN be expensive, but if you know where to look, it's really not that bad.
