"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.

Tough situation...

My good buddy's sister was out partying with us this weekend, I've known her for a while but been in LTR's.

Anyway, my wing ends up locking down a lady for the night and he leaves his sister with me. Next thing you know I'm on my way back to her house to sleep on the couch, only I ended up in her bed instead and it was on.

So next day she told her brother that I just slept on the couch.. He never asked me a thing, she's an awesome chick and I'm kinda interested in pursing it..

What do you guys think?
 

"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.

Keep it a complete secret and don't get hung up on her in any way.

Don't tell anyone you know, don't brag, they'll rat you out, she'll be pissed and you'll lose her. This is actually a good situation because you don't have to think "does she want a relationship, doesn't she want a relationship" even if she's sending signals both ways. This because if she really wants to get serious in the future she's usually going to date you retroactively to look more like a "good girl"...she'll start talking to her brother about you being cute or whatever and you two possibly starting to date/get to know one another. :crackup:

If she starts doing that, she's covering her tracks and really wants gf/bf. If she doesn't, treat it just like a permanent FB and don't ever indicate you see it as any more than that.
