"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.

What is everyone's opinion on this. I was in a 3 way conversation, she was talking to someone else, I was watching her face while she talked, she looks at me, takes her jacket and covers her chest and looks back at the other person she was talking to.
 

"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 get this once in a while too.

It can be caused by a few things IMO. Could be one or more of the following...

1. If you are a shy guy who doesn't make good eye contact and sort of looks down instead. (She unconsciously or consciously thinks you're looking at her boobs even if you aren't.)

2. You are uncomfortable and/or intimidated by her and giving off a subtle creepy vibe.

3. She has zero attraction for you but "senses" you are attracted to her so she is covering the goods as a sign of no interest.
