"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.

but not others?

I consider myself well traveled throughout the USA and I've noticed something that varies throughout the country. In some parts of the country, it is somewhat common to see a good looking white girl dating a minority and no one cares. People accept it as normal and hardly raise much of an issue about it.

In other parts of the country, it is a big deal. Like people would see a minority with a pretty white girl, get angry about it, treat the couple like outcasts, and absolutely oppose it.

People may think it is diversity but I haven't noticed that at all. I don't even think diversity plays a role here. I've been to places which were diverse but racism was bad and place which were mostly all white and it wasn't that big of an issue, vice versa.

Like my Muslim friend recently moved to Oregon which is mostly white but he gets hot girls there, he was struggling to do that when he was in Long Island and even the few times he did a lot of people had an issue with it and strangers gave him a tough time for it.

So why is it like that?
 

"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.
