"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.

hey all,

Split up with my g/f 2 weeks ago (Neither has made any contact) and we have quite a few mutal friends. one of our friends is having a night out as she is leaving for a year. my ex will be there.
my options are

1. Don't go incase my ex is there with a new fella which i guess will set me back. although i'm moving on quite well.

2. Go for one drink to say hello to my friends and don't care whether she is with someone or not.

What you guys think?

Thanks
 

"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.

Just go. If you don't care much about her anymore, it should not worry you whether she's there or not. Besides, you may meet someone new there.

Your decision should be based on whether or not the friend that is leaving is of any importance to you. So if you think you want to see the mutual friend then you should go.

In case she drop by or you happen to bump into her, you should just say Hi. Or smile then do other things. There isn't to totally ignore and make things awkward. However it really depends on what happened prior to breaking up which I won't be asking so you judge for yourself. :D

Remember you don't have to give her any attention.
