"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 do you guys think about purposely not kissing on the first date

"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.

I wouldn’t. Why deprive her & I?
I don't know, that's why I'm asking if anyone has tried it. I think there is merit to the idea. I believe women are so used to certain behaviors from men, that doing something different, even if it makes no sense, can be effective for creating intrigue. In the short term, if you just want to get laid, it's ****ing stupid, but if you're looking to setup an LTR with a great first impression? Well, it's not such a crazy idea.

What do you guys think about purposely not [test] driving the new car at the automobile shop until after you bought it?

Well there is your answer.
Cars are far less complex than women

She’ll probably think you’re not interested & move on. Women have lots of options.

I definitely agree with the bolded part, even if you see her as "relationship material", playing it slow is literally shooting yourself in the foot.

Okay, what if you have a great date, it goes well, you kiss her, etc, bring her home. Then she's on your couch, you make out, her tits are out, she's all horned up etc, but then purposely stop from before you have sex? Maybe throw their own psychology (I don't **** on first dates) back at them, too.

These are just hypotheticals. Genuinely curious of any guys have tried this.
If you get a girl back somewhere and u say I don't have sex this early it's actually way easier to progress. Just actually just makeout for a long time.

They will be trying to escalate a lot

Ha ha true. Even more reasons for that "test drive" then at first sight... :devil:
