"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"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 heard the new RHCP is awesome. In my opinion real rock is dying.

That new Tool album just isnt as good as Lateralus imo.

With Teeth had only like 4 good songs

Martin Lopez just quit Opeth

Opeth, Porcupine Tree, Velvet Revolver, and a few other bands are the last of what real rock is about

But the last CD I purchased was Hank Williams III 'Straight to Hell' talk about a hellraising good time

I bought a paul oakenfold mix from over ten years ago, titled Perfection. It's old school electronica, trance, house, and all vocals and its okay.

"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.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

yeah dude. I hate that scene so much. And man, its not out of anything.

A real good friend of mines played bass for a band called Spoken and so I would hang out with him and all these emo kids like way back when emo wasnt exactly a fad. Those kids dont know how to have fun. And their music is annoying.

I do like one or two bands though like Thursday, Brandston and At The Drive In but thats about IT...f*ck hawthorne heights and Avenge Fagotfold

I don't know man... I thought Lateralus was pretty good, but I didn't enjoy it as much as Aeinma and the new CD. A lot of people I've talked to are on the fence with the new CD, but personally I ****ing love it.

I will agree with you though when you talked about rock music. They're not too many 'Rockstars' anymore... just a bunch of people playing music with guitars and drums.

It's not that I don't like a lot of the new ****, because I do, but 'rock' in the traditional sense (Kiss, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Pink Floyd and bands of that ilk come to mind) is dying rapidly.

and Motorhead lots and lots of motorhead!

If you like Pink Floyd a lot you need to check out this band called Porcupine Tree . they're like a new Pink Floyd, younger, trippier, and make just damn good foot tapping music. I cant beliebe they arent being played on the radio, their songs are catchy as hell.
 

"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.

Radio is way too commercialized and overplays 90% of the good songs. Chances are if you don't have a big name, or you're not local, you won't get much playing time. It sucks, but hey, I like those bigs names too lol

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
