"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.

Same thread just need new title.

I don't understand why I could get such a low ratio of (just dates too!) dates/number of times I ask (1/4) when I have high status and looks. What the hell is wrong?....

I am not getting many dates but I always hear "this girl likes you blah blah blah". I'm cute and have status and everything, but for some reason whenever I message someone to see a movie, I almost always get either "I have a bf" or no response at all.

Completely don't understand....
 

"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.

Maybe I misunderstood, but are you texting to ask these women out on a date? Try calling instead of texting.

Also realize that you're posting this on the wrong forum.

Doesn't everyone have dry spells? Many people on this board have posited the theory that women are most attracted to you when you have other women available, almost as if they have a sixth sense about who's getting the poon. Or more likely, you yourself come across as more confident, less desperate, etc. when you have other available women.

The only advice I can really give you is stop caring about it.
