"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.

Why Me?
by FJR


One of the techniques I learned as a professional salesman is the "Why did you buy from me?" question that drastically reduces cancellation rates and increases customer satisfaction.

The bottom line is after a deal is signed, right before you leave your new customer's office, you ask, "I was wondering, considering all the competitors you looked at, why did you finally buy from me?"

The guy will then go on about how great you are, how much you impressed him, and how comfortable he is doing business with you.

Since dating is really no different than selling (in dating the product you are selling is YOU), this same technique works very well.

During the first date, when you reach one of those uncomfortable silences that inevitably comes up at some point in the conversation, you simply look the girl in the eye and ask, "I was wondering, what was it that made you say yes when I asked you out?"

She'll then go into how attractive you are, how sexy, how intelligent, successful, well dressed, impressive, etc. She is answering all of her "why not" questions before she even gets to the point of asking herself, "Why not this guy?"

On a subconscious level she will feel more connected to you and feel like she really made the right decision by going out with you instead of some other guy.

I started using this on first dates and found that the rate of women not calling me back after the date has gone down significantly, and that the second, third, etc. dates will move more quickly into touching, making out, and ultimately sex.

Try it - it works!



anyone try this before?
 

"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.

That depends actually. If you're the great catch or prize, then the girl should be the one that's selling herself.

But yes it does work! And if the girl's IL is high enough you shouldnt even have to bring it up and she'll tell you within a few dates.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I disagree.

Asking a woman why she chose you is putting her in the SELECTOR role and by default you are then the SELECTEE.

In my opinion it telegraphs uncertainty in your own value as a person.

Show the lady the best time of her life and SHE will be the one asking "Why me?".

EDIT:I have to add that my opinion comes from my experiences.....YMMV.

it is not a good thing if she replies with:

"Nothing better to do."

"Your mom paid me to go out with you"

or

"To get closer to your older, more handsome and charming brother"


right?

Guys, to me this screams AFC. I mean come on, it makes sense if you are a salesman but asking this during a date? More times than not, if a woman is into you she will at least give you signs about why she likes you. This is different than why she chose to go out with you; we all know women who will go out with your for just the free meal or entertainment.

The point is, if you don't already know why a woman would go out with you, you obviously have no idea who you are and/or you are just looking for some signs of acceptance from this woman to build up your ego which is lacking. Stop looking from acceptance and validation from other people; it's not the way of the DJ and it's primarily the way that women operate.
