"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.

So I was watching this tv show called First Date, and there was this super beta guy that just kept begging and begging. He complimented her many times, he said that she was the hottest girl he's ever been on a date with, he said that he was super lucky to have met her etc, etc; all this while she just nodded and laughed...


I attach a pic that describes the whole thing. Please, dont be this guy...

"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.

Very true.....If they don't want to go out with me I move along. I don't trust tv shows because a lot of it is contrived to cause drama and make it more interesting. He could of been coached to act that way. I have worked in the TV industry for over 30 years. Real life is dull. Got to interject a little drama to spice things up.
