"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.

Thanks for the replies guys. She hasn't emailed back and I'm not going back to the dealership just to talk to her as its over 80 miles away (Its the closest dealership for my car brand). I think that would look creepy, as she knows where I'm from. Like I said, I tried several times yesterday to call her office phone (like a freakish amount; I think eight total calls or something like that). I'm gonna be busy this weekend with work as it turns out, so its no big loss. I haven't ruled out calling again next week with a much more toned down plan (ie, just drinks), but I'm not sure yet.

Thanks again for the advice. There will be others, and I'll be sure not to **** it up.
 

"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.
