I usually see a tie between doctors and police officers.
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.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Mind you, I'm also tall, fit, and reasonably good looking so maybe this plays a part. But the hours issue definitely isn't a problem, where there's a will there's a way. If nothing else, there's always Friday and Saturday nights plus I'm always getting hooked up through friends and meeting women through social and networking events. Being a doctor or lawyer is definitely a plus, but I know lots of doctors and lawyers who are not that good looking or not very social and they're perpetually single so I think things like looks, fitness, dressing well, and having game count for a lot no matter what profession you're in.

I think being a cop would draw a "love it or hate it" kind of deal from women.
I've personally had discussions with a few women who were married to policemen and they related the profession negatively--mainly due to the stress.
I'm told all the time that I look like a cop/military, and that's why several women said that they were attracted to me. That's the positive of being a policeman, I guess--the look, the authoritative personality, the ability to handle oneself in stressful situations, etc. It definitely takes a strong personality to be a police officer. I can see how woman would be attracted to that.
