"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.

If you wanna see a male-female rollercoaster without being involved check out this show.
Constant games are played between contestants and you can learn a lot about human behaviour (if you understand the background of this behaviour).
Sometimes your brain might hurt but you will get by it soon enough.
I would reccomend this show especially to the newbies here so they can see more objectively how real life works. And maybe they can recognise themselves in some situations and see what they were doing wrong.
Anyway, as stupid as the show is it is still educational if you know what you are watching.
 

"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'll admit, I got sucked into watching this show, and I think it's a great representation of how the top 1% of men actually act. You could consider pretty much all the males on that show "Alpha". Some more than others, but you know what I mean. All of them are un-apologetically sexual, and not afraid to escalate quickly. Put a bunch of good looking people on an island with nothing to do, and they will start to behave like animals. The show and the producers purposely give them nothing to do, and are definitely trying to set them up for failure to make things more interesting. This is basically us (both men and women) in our biologically purest form.. we're genetically coded to act this way. Although the show is definitely exaggerated for entertainment, I think it's a great reminder for men to never be afraid of their sexuality around women.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
