"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.

this is a quote from a post at loveshack:

I hear ya! I hate dating too. I doesn't work for me either. I am a woman and a very independent one and sitting around for the prince to come and say hi just doesn't work. OK, you'll say "A woman can make an approach too". But still, the guy has MOST of the power, which for me, is debilitating. I hate waiting for the phone to ring (or not ring), I want to take action in my hands rather than be passive.

I think my friend you have to thank your stars you are the guy.
It's at http://www.loveshack.org/forums/t15970/ if you want to see the original post.

Why would this woman think this is so? The way we see it, getting women regularly requires a lot of training before the power equation is reversed.
 

"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.

maybe she's ugly...ugly chicks don't get the attention that HBs do so it's harder for them to find the kind of guys they want. That's my first guess.

With the whole waiting for the phone thing...I've had girls tell me "how come u don't call me" (like that alicia keys song LOL) Well, I don't call em cuz they call me. Simple. Another reason is I got 4 in my rotation right now, so i don't have time to call em all and chat each up everyday. The thing is, they all suspect this, and call me a pimp and whatnot, but i just shrug it off with an "i could care less" tone in my voice. So maybe that's another thing. They suspect they're not the only girl in ur life.

I dunno...figure it out man haha

oh....the whole power thing...she's prolly dealin with guys that have game and she likes to be in control (I had a girl like that last month, had to cut her off cuz she was no fun...she was always trying to get the upper hand)

LOL, a good woman that is not manipulative or has a herd instinct is extraordinarily hard to find. Men do have more power than woman, just when it comes to physical and intelligence. But women are just too socially/emotional wrecks that bring us men into their schemes. The only power a man has against a woman is to be strong and prepare to walk away.

I'd *honestly* give away one of my nuts to meet a woman that is truly independent yet at the same time worships her man and doesn't use subtle tactics to get things done her way. Oh and disease free and low sexual partners is an extra bonus.

"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.
