"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.

What are some methods everyone in here uses to find out if a woman you are approaching has a man?
For me what I do is I will noticed somethin the girl is possesing and ill tell her about it and then tell her, "Your boyfriend must have made a good choice when he got you....." If she says, I dont have a boyfriend, then she is mine to lose and I proceed from there
 

"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.

Ask...if you arent confident enough to do that then you at least know where you need to improve. Another suggestion is that you could play off of something she says, and respond in a c/f way with the word "boyfriend" in the sentence. If she doesnt have one, she'll correct you.

Ex. She's talking about how she has to get going or something...respond with "Oh does your boyfriend have you on curfew? What a control freak..."

I don't even ask. If it comes up, then it comes up.
