Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
whats a line i can use or activity i can do to get confidence up with cold approchin?

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

"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.
If you want openers, just search the forum and you'll find plenty. Some are good, some are not. Instead of having canned, default lines, try to observe the surroundings and comment on that. If you learn how to do that, you'll never run out of **** to say..Pace reality..
"Hey, what's shakin'?"
"Where's the toilet, I gotta **** bad."
Don't worry about it. Say hi. how it goes from there will be a magical journey into the mind, body and spirit of a young lady.

"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.
Hi, That's like going to the airport, you know what I’m saying, when there like, are you aware of the contents of this bag; I’m like no. Did you pack this **** yourself; I’m like no. Did you leave this **** unintended; I don't know some mother****er might have left it under a trailer for a couple years."

These are 2 different questions in the title of your post and since some of the other sosuavers have answered the question about opening lines...
The only way to get confidence with cold approaching is to do it. Now, going in with the expectation that you will either:
a) get rejected, or
b) not get rejected
will not help your confidence in making cold approaches because more than likely it`s going to be a) in the beginning.
Having said that, here`s an idea (one that I`ve tested myself and others that I offered up the idea to) - make cold approaches with the explicit purpose of getting a rejection. Go for 10.
In fact, why not do this with your friends, wings, etc. and make a game of it, even at a club or wherever. You`ll be surprised at the results and it will definitely help your confidence because you`re going in for the rejection and so you don`t care.
A simple line for this is, "Hi. What`s your phone no.?" or come up with whatever opener you want.
Try to go for the rejection purposely and see what happens in trying to amass 10 of these.
Just my 2 cents.
Cheers,

I hardly ever do strictly "cold" approaches. Experience has shown me there's a certain sequence of events that's expected. I "warm the approach up" first with eye contact and a smile. If she gives an indication of interest, then I know any move I make will at least be welcome at first.
I also like to openly flirt when I'm out, and interact with all sorts of gals, whether old or young, stunning or azz-ugly, which ends up encouraging women to hit on me, which happens quite often, even though I'm just a bit above average in looks, and well above average in age where I tend to hang out.
Why go through all the hassle of cold approaching all the time when making yourself approachable is so much easier and more effective?
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Here's what I use:
"Are you from around here?"
"Where abouts?"
"How old are you?"
