"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.

they say they're comin out to the bars, and then at the last minute they always cancel, or don't even show up. that's my pet peeve. and tonight my friend asked ME to go earlier in the day. he pulls this all the time.

anyone here have friends like that?

man it's irritating. Why do they do it?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

WHY do you keep them as friends? Seems to me you need to find some MEN who keep their word instead of mangina's who act like a woman you would dump if she pulled that sh!t. Birds of a feather,flock together-if you are about improving, you need to improve your quality of friends.

I know people that do that but they are not close friends of mine. I know them from work . For example this guy at work was suppose to go play poker w us yesturday night at my friends party. He said he would deff go and even replied to my other friends text msg when he asked him if he was going. At 9 we sent him text he didnt reply. We tried calling him, he wasnt picking up. Its gay and thats why we dont really care much about him. All my close friends show up unless they have a serious emergency..

I don't generally tolerate unreliable people. There's something in my nature that makes me kinda hate these people and I usually don't put up with their ways. You shouldn't either.
