"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.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Include a note or something else in an envelope with the picture. Or, better yet, have the picture framed in one of those frames that has places for two pictures. Put the picture in one, the note in the other. Very romantic.
Give it to her after the prom, as a memento of a wonderful evening. Then fvck her so hard she'll never forget it.

GET-ER-DONE
"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.

Example:
Hey you!
Take good care of this picture...and yourself!
HER NAME in big writing
your signiture
and finally date it in the lower corner.
Basically don't over do it or make a big deal out of it.

Yea, that's true most people do write on the back of pictures. And the pen won't show through so don't worry about that. The two picture frame idea sounds really good though so I'd look into that if I were you.

The Picture frame idea is good for a girl. To much thought was put into that no offense. If you do that picture frame thing you'll show you care about her and she'll get board.
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
look, this really annoys me. You are never going to lose a girl by showing too much interest (well it would be pretty damn hard) if you are confident and capable of living your own life (ie attractive).
I think the picture frame idea is wicked, but hey, i have no clue about women, compared to these n00bs.
I dont believe that a post like this got this many replies...
WTF... You want to know what to write on the back of a Fu<king picture?
come on man.. this is bullsh!t
i dont mean to say this to u if you are new, and just striking up conversation.. however if you are honestly asking people who dont know anything about this girl, what to say on the back of a picture, man..
if you cant make this decision on your own maybe you should take a step back and focus on a bigger problem?
sigh, well i guess the only advice i can give u about this without being a dumbass is just to say what you honestly think of her. By that I mean write what made you ask her to the prom.
Also, I guess what i do is make sure i use my own personality (that sounds stupid but you're the one asking) Since i am a more laid back and funny type, i would go with humor. As for what to really write, why was she so special? Her smarts? Her smile? Her lucious ass!?
for a normal picture i would say something like:
Example: "Hey genie, just thinking of you :], and your nice ass. See you later!, pro 2005"
however i hope you wouldnt be asking about some normal picture. earthshyne's is probably the best advice as his is the most personal. Girls tend to like that sh!t, as they will run around all day with the envelope out just for social proof..
.. at least thats how most of the girls I know act. Good luck i guess in this huge turmoil you have here =] later
