"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.

Only read the first page, and I don't see the problem? The OP is a bit confused, but everybody is giving sound advice, no?

It´s further down, when you get the guys who complaint and are really bitter about the way things work in the real world, and refuse to think differently, even though there is some sound advice.
