"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.
Women are like...
- Thread starter mtlwlu
- Start date
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

Wrong. In the US it is 3 to 1 .DonGorgon said:
Women are the most amazing creatures to walk the earth. They light up the darkest of days, they create life, they are the sensitive, they put a smile on aface. They will fight to be with the person they want.
To sum them up: They are perfect in every way.
All the negative responses are all the YOUR faults not the women. Women want to find and spoil men, but you guys that have a bitter and ugly perception of women will never find the woman of your dreams. Remember your sisters and mothers are women, And all I can say about my mom is that she is perfect.

Good observation, romangod, but I'm at least happy that the # of women doing my job at my current location or region is 1 in 70. Women get upset with the small stuff quicker and more numerous which is why they usually can't handle my job for very long. It takes vision and confidence to see it through to completion.romangod said:
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

“Women are like apples on trees, the best ones are on the top of the tree.
The men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and don't want to get hurt.
Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't so good but easy.
So, the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality they are amazing.
They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top because they value quality.”
I wish that girls were more like Pot Noodle – freeze dried and quick.
Farewell to guilt trips, nagging and random tantrums.
If she lived in a cupboard, things wouldn’t be so tough
