"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 just wanted to share my strategy when I call a chick for a first time and just wanted to see if anyone else does the same thing.

For example, I got this chicks number on Friday..waited until tonight and called her.

I get her voicemail...just hanging up w/o leaving a message looks creepy and stalkish, so I do not do it.

After the first voicemail...I do NOT leave my call back number. I do this because I would still like to remain in control and some girls are leary of calling guys back after the first phone call.

In the voicmail I tell the girl I will try her again later on in the week.

Second Voicemail (if she does not pick up):

This time I leave my call back number. If she does not return my phone call, I assume she is not interested and I move on.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

you can just hang up without leaving a message, that doesn't make you a stalker.

I'm presuming you're extremely interested in pursuing this girl seeing as how you're burning so many nuerons trying to figure out her state (impossible by the way). Do yourself a favor and skip the the voice messages, rack up on some more numbers and call her in a few more days.
