"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.

I know you guys are going to say that if a chick wants to see you she will, but...

I'm dating a medicine student right now, and the chick is busy as **** she's on duty like 3 times a week, and sometimes she needs to cancel our dates because of it...and this **** is frustrating to me, eventhou everytime we see each other we have a great time together...

pls, i'd like to know what you guys thoughts on that
have you guys ever been in a relationship with a workaholic chick!?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Ex girlfriend was pre med
wanted to be a spinal surgeon lol

We had really good times together, but she worked and did school **** religiously.
I found it frustrating too, if I were you i'd just spin another plate.
If you're in a committed relationship
I know the feeling, you want to be supportive
But you also have needs and you have to remember that.
If this girl isn't filling the Girlfriend role that you want then you'll have to find another or put up with being put off for work, your choice.

That schedule is not by "choice." That is if she doesn't want to get kicked out and get her degree she'll have to study 24-7 so I'm not sure if you can call her a workaholic.

It seems quite obvious to me that you aren't as busy. You'll have to deal with this ....probably forever. This is what it's like being with a doctor. The types of people who end of staying together with such people are those who are just as busy and cannot find time.
