"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.
What's something mean to say to a girl who keeps on hitting on me so she'll stop?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

"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.

Well what does this girl look like? You say she's gross,but is she really? Or do you just not like her? Because if she's a 6 or a 5 at a minimum,then you know she probably has some afcs after her,but she turns them all down. Therefore,if you pretend to be an afc like all the other guys,then she'll want to distance herself from you too. Is she really gross? Like is she obese,with a face full of acne,bad breath,with teeth missing or something? She can't be that bad.Demystify said:
The suggestion from Asteconn seems pretty good,unless she thinks something is up when you say it.

Seriously though, don't be mean about it because it could come back to bite you later on.
Like Asteconn said, tell her you see her as a sister and then tell her you aren't ready for anything serious.

Why are you putting yourself in the position to be hugged or patted every once in a while by her? Why don't you keep yourself busy? Why don't you go where she is not? Why don't you keep busy with sports / reading / school / college? Why don't you volunteer?
You seem to enjoy the attention she is giving you. It's nice to feel wanted, even by a girl who is not good looking, its good for the male ego.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
