"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.

I hate it when I lose a gold tooth going down on a girl,..
 

"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 was going to say it might be some surgical tools from where the doctor was working during her/his gender reassignment! LOL

I'm getting bitter and sarcastic in my old age!

Damn it, I was considering using the ring, but now... screw that. Maybe I will just do pills. The best was always Depo Provera, but they are finding that it destroys a woman's calcium.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Ten years ago, a gf of mine had the depo shot, and it made her bleed for months. But a different gf now is on the shot and has no such problem. Maybe the shot has improved, I don't know. This nuvaring thing is supposed to be the most effective birth control, because the hormone dose is steady, and you can't miss a day like with the pill. However, antibiotics still make it ineffective just like with the pill.

Guys, don't let it freak you out! If you finger a girl up by her g-spot, it feels like there's a rolled-up condom stuffed up there. Now that you have read this thread, you can avoid the mood-killing, "uh, wtf is that thing shoved up your pvssy?" I think a question like that might be even better birth control than the nuva ring :)

I like the idea of this nurvaring thing. It serves as proof the girl is using birth control where as with the pill how can you be sure. That is if you can make sure it's not some used rolled up condom stuck in her :) .
