"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.

Wasn't sure if this was appropriate for the DJ Discussion thread, so I put it here.

My girlfriend's birthdays coming up and we were originally going to go to Disneyland but it turned out to be too expensive, so now I'm lost. What should I we do for her birthday? Again, I'm not looking for gift ideas, I'm looking for things to do on her birthday.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

If you have you're own place, make it into Disneyland. Or just rent a hotel room, make it to were no one can contact you, and eat at some expensive resturant that you normally don't go to. Sky's the limit.

Throw a birthday party. Invite her friends and your friends to come.

This reminds me of a saying of Ric Flair's. I can't remember the exact wording, but: "You don't have to go to Disneyland to ride Space Mountain"
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
