"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.

I would only try and reprogram a woman that is in her early to mid 20s.

If she is in her 30s and 40s...that would be a waste of time and the best we can do is show them our boundaries and deal breakers. And of course, apply the DJ stuff.
Totally agree. Women become feminist firstly because of the education they have. For women that reach their 30s and single, their past/experiences must be add to this. It becomes deeply hardcoded.

My ex-gf was 26 and I was able to remold her in only one year, but I admit that it was a tough job: lots of walking away & sometimes even spinning plates (which I don't like when I make the commitement of being in an exclusive LTR) to show her who's the boss.

I used to be one of those that preferred older women. Not any more, molding a younger women makes your life much simpler.

"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.

Picking up women on their double-standards should be fun. Most of the time the motivation is less about equality and fairness and more about sticking up for their 'team.'
Can be fun if it is a woman we are just having sex with. But it is very disapointing if it is a girlfriend that is part of a LTR.

Note: we know there are differences between men and women, and stating those differences is not the equivalent of dealing with "double standards". This is the key word women use when we state the clear differences between men and women: "That's double standards!". Nope, it is not double standard, it is in fact the way it has been of CENTURIES!

So, this can become a very thin line and an impossibility when dealing with women.
