"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 can't believe this, yesterday me and my dad were supposed to be meeting my mum and sister in town.

We found them and were then discussing where to go next when this white knight who had been watching steps in and asks them if we are hassling them.

After telling him they did actually know us they had this sickly smug expression on their faces.

I felt like punching him, he was a singular small guy anyway, if we had been hassling them and hadn't moved on when he asked he would have had to either slink away in shame or fight us which would have ended very badly and pretty quickly for him.
 

"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.

WTF is wrong with this guy? Reminds me of a friend of mine who got into an argument with some girls in a grocery store parking lot (the girls started it). Some small dude (again a small dude, what's up with that, Napoleon complex?) yelled at him to leave them alone. My friend told him that if he was smart, he would mind his own business.

Turned out he wasn't just a white knight, he was a mental case. When my friend came out of the store he was still out there, except now he was carrying on an animated conversation with himself. Your guy sounds just as crazy.

I don't know, but arrogant as it may sound If was his size I certainly wouldn't have been looking for a fight with someone like me and then + another guy at the same time.

People that dont mind their own fvcking business, people that dont get the fact than anytime a guy is harassing a girl is very likely that she is the responsible of that through her behaviour or choice.

Anytime I see some guy screaming at a girl I know for sure its either her date or some bad boy that she on purpose piss off to have a reaction and create drama, a girl has hundreds of way to leave a guy let alone in a public place where a simple "help" from her would gather a brigade of people.

It's the new trick of useless men to play the white knight, those who cant make it though look or manliness try it with "moral".
 

"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.

As an aside, why is James Bonds codename "white knight"?

Wasn't the character based upon a British spy with the codename "White Rabbit"? I suppose White Knight was a more dignified codename.
