"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.

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 quality of this forum has gone to hell and we have people like the starter of this thread roaming this forum, yet a legend like LMS get banned, figure how that works!

I actually think gold is the most overrated thing in the world. Shiny metal -- big deal.

A hot redhead will do it for me anyday, when it comes to women.
