"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.

Trouble with kino

Hello all,

I'm working at a summer camp and there's this amazingly hot girl there. We've already been introduced, and as fate would have it, we're even in the same traveling group!

I've been doing a little C&F, being positive and manly (when we go to the beach- it's suns out guns out with my group of guys), etc, etc. The next step is kino. I understand kino, and it has worked wonders for me.

But since we're working at a summer camp, we're surrounded by kids from start til finish. It's not that I mind, I'm pretty good with kids. It's just that I get no real opportunities for kino. (If you ever worked at a camp with elementary kids, you know what I mean). We're dragged from the slides to wallball, there's really no time for solid interaction with her. Most of the time we spend talking is us talking from other sides of the rooms, trying to coordinate the kids. I do kino when I can, but compared to past experiences, it just feels like it's not enough.

Any advice?
 

"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.

errr...no.

It's not a band camp. It's just a regular summer camp for kids in elementary school. No musical instruments whatsoever.

No musical instruments at all sounds like a **** camp lol.

Just get it when you can, your only one man. Nothing you can do
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Analyzeit- Thanks. I"ll just try my best, and if it doesn't work out- big whoop. And the camp is kinda cool. We go to movies, an amusement park, an aquarium, the beach, etc. I don't get what the big deal is about music/instruments/band all of the sudden.
