"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

B: On Friday I'm going to do xy. I'll be heading out at 7pm.
HB: Ok. What do you mean by that? ;)

She knows what I meant (that I want her to come) but she wants to have a little fun. How would you answer? On one hand I feel she's calling me a pvssy for not asking directly, but my original intent was to show that her coming or not wasn't going to affect me going or not (which is true).

Met her at a party. Invited her to come out to some parties the other night but she said she was staying in because she was tired after 3 nights of going out. Basically if she doesn't come on Friday, I'll move on.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

i honestly did not see where in the text message that you told her to join in and come with you. ask her if she wants to go or say what time will you be here.

"Be ready by 7:30"

I think they meant 7, so I went with that, but it's along the same lines as darkjedi's. Will update when she responds.

thanks
 

"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.

Good recovery (from what you said originally), provided she will believe you didn't need 30 minutes+ to think of that answer. Next time, I'd just invite her. Too much of this DJ stuff will have you over-thinking things.
