"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.

Yet another person said you can just take it to any bank, and they do it easily? which is true? also is it sutpid of me to have watied this long, because now the dollar has appreciated, thanks
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

if you don't need it, you are better off waiting until the dollar retains a tad bit more value.. you would be giving to charity right now

Yes most banks. Sometimes have to pay a small fee.

Appreciation won't mean much as it's only $200.

I just got back from the UK and I felt like I was giving to Charity every time I went to the bank.

...I think it would have to be a particular bank.. I doubt the Twin City Bank down the street just has Canadian money laying around, waiting for you to come in and get some.

so just go to the bank and ask to have $200 american converted to canadian, simple as that?
yes. it's that simple. go to any bank and tell them you want to change you American dollars into canadian. if you have an account they wont even charge you the fee.
