"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.

Hey guys.

I met this chick online from Match. We've emailed and then texted a bit. She seems quite interested. She texted me the following tonight:

MatchChick: "So this is gonna sound weird... It says on your match page you are not looking for anything serious. This true? I'm in a weird situation and was looking for a possible distraction. r u up 4 meeting sometime?

Mike: Yes and yes.

MatchChick: Cool... when r u free to meet?

Anyway, we're gonna meet up for a drink Thursday. I was planning on meeting her anyway.

So she seems fine with the "nothing serious" thing. She's 31 by the way.

Could you guys translate the , "I'm in a weird situation and was looking for a possible distraction" piece?

I think I know what that means, but wanted some input and advice.

I don't do a lot of online game, so it's not my expertise.

Thanks.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I'm gonna have to go with married/'in a relationship,' too. Possible low interest for someone else?

It could be something less than that; either way, I'd roll with it 'til I know for sure.

Probably in a relationship without sex, or in a fight with her current partner / about to leave him and needs to get off?

Seems like a sticky situation. Usually when a chick wants NSA sex, it is.

.. Or maybe her weird situation is that you're not ****ing her brains out right that second. Lol. :cool:

Whether she is married or have a boyfriend.. The sure thing is she is getting bored with some one or having problem with some one and she wants to unwind or get away together with you.

Now your job is to make her forget that and give her a non stressful fun day. Make her feel safe but do flirt and do some kino. But dont show any sexual intentions unless she is the 1st one who flash it.

Yes this is a confusing one.

You should probably just give me her number and let me evaluate her in person.

Thanks everybody. I first suggested a bar at a town next to hers. She counter-offered with a bar in a town next to mine.

If I can F-close this chick, maybe I'll just get a hotel room. She lives in a two-family house with her sister so we can't go back to her place. Plus if she is dating someone, I'd rather not show her where I live.

Should I just kino and fool around a bit on date one and try to close on date two?

Or just try for a full close on date 1?

I've done ONS from bars, but not yet from online. Although from what I read they aren't uncommon.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

Hey Mike,

Good work. Really looking forward to the update. By the way Vegas all worked out beautifully - your tips helped a lot. I'll PM you.

Espi - that story about screwing the girl in her 5-series is legendary!

Exactly. My guess is she really was taken. She was probably feeling horny and considering cheating when she suggested the date. Then she either got cold feet about the cheating part or her bf gave it to her good the night before lol.

Regardless, I nexted her.

Thanks for everyone's input.

Sorry that didn't work out Mike. She sounds like an idiot. Onwards and upwards.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I swear, these types of experience are almost the norm for me. Since I split up with my LTR (who I have to say I didn't appreciate enough at the time) 95% of the women I've met have just been trash. I would never have believed there were so many garbage women out there.

Yeah it should be Flake.com lol. Before I came to SS, I spent years thinking there was something wrong with me. I'd get flaked on and blame myself. But hearing from other guys on here, I see how common it is. As such, I don't take it personally.

I've gotten cold feet about dates too, but I never flaked on anyone. Once I agree to something, I show up.

It's ok though. I have bigger fish to fry. Online is something I only dabble in these days. I prefer to meet women while traveling. That's more my specialty. I have a business trip coming up.

Thanks again guys.
