"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.

HERE the main topic is how to get a girl but what about a forum of how to keep her. Ltr forum were dj's can talk abut their ltrs and thats the main topic of the forum i don't know but i haven't see a ltr thread in a big while well thats my request
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
Two things:

1) Having an "LTR Forum" might encourage AFCs to continue trying to "make things work" in hopeless or damaging situations. Could do more harm than good.

2) I don't really see how the techniques and attitudes used to KEEP a woman should be any different than those used to GET a woman.

I'm not a big fan of the misconception that once a guy and girl are "steady" (or even MARRIED for that matter), the dynamic of the relationship needs to change. Personally, I think it's why lots of couples that are happy when dating end up getting divorced once they get married.
