"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.

at around 5:46 pay close attention to that Edward Norton looking guy (when he played a cop in Pride and Glory lolz seriously look at him)

why didnt he get an approach tell? what did he do wrong? why wasnt he part of that group?

Now I am all scared that would happen to me as girls look away when I see them (as opposed to smiling at me, unless I say hi) CURSE THIS OVERLY MASCULINE VISAGE!
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

LOL, that guy does look exactly like Edward Norton. He should use that to his advantage. Instead, he comes off as a shy creeper.

He didn't say anything. That was the issue.

Something I used to do in the past...Never again.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

So basically you have to do the move first? And not to wait for an approach tell from the girl, unlike what the video said?

Great video on body language BTW, anybody knows more?
