"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.

Hello my fellows, I've just discovered your forum and I find the environment very open and creative in terms of women and dating

I'm not new to the circuit, I'm joining to reap the benefits of the community and perhaps provide my own insight to people who are in the kind of situation I found myself just a year or two ago.

Basically was an insecure nerd for the first 17 or 18 years of my life. When I was 16 I got in a relationship (just because she was the first girl that liked me, ever) that dragged on a year more than it should have with my girl cheating on me startng a third of the way through. when we broke up I was a frackin mess, but I came across David D's materials and vowed to turn myself around. Fastforward to this year. I came across the Book of Pook, which was extremely enlightening and led me to this website.

Now I'm on the true path. The path to the Don Juan. I hope to learn from your insights and help anyone who needs to open their mind.
 

"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.

Lol take it easy there cowpoke. It's only sarcasm. I'm not mad at all b, a Don Juan shouldn't be losin' his cool over trivial BS like someone calling him gay. And what's so bad about introducing one's self? Make your presence be known to the community. A Don Juan is a natural Leader. One who will be able to help those with less wisdom than he, but will continue to evovle over time. Besides, analyzing other people's stories can gvie insght to your own.

as I side note, i'm actually smoking the ganja, very relaxing, helps me achieve some deep level restructyring of abstract thought.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
