"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

OK I'll make this short and to the point. I met this girl last week at work (note that she doesn't work where I do) and I think we hit it off pretty well (some kino, laughter, etc). Because I was at work I did not get any contact info so as not to make things awkward. However, I'm pretty sure I ran into her today around campus, but I didn't recognize her at the time. I know she saw me but still I didn't say anything because I honestly wasn't sure if it was her and didn't want to look weird calling out her name. So do you guys think this poses a problem for any chance I may have had?

"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.

What I see is this: you met her at work? Was she a customer? Then her hitting it off with you may have just been her being social as part of her business transaction, not necessarily her indicating her interest in you.

Is the business transaction over with (or it wasn't about business to begin with)? Then now you can go in and see. But now you have to find her and "accidentally" cross paths. And when you do, get her number.

If it wasn't about business to begin with that brought her to you, then you should've asked for her number back then (unless your boss was standing right there, but then again, if he was, then you wouldn't be flirting with a chick while you're supposed to be working, would you?).

'Didn't want to make things awkward / didn't want to look weird'... I think you may need to overcome your self-consciousness some.

If you know for a fact that you'll see her again, then no you didn't ruin your chance with her. If you'll see her again, this may have actually raised her interest level in you. She'll be wondering why you didn't come say hi, or wonder if you even saw her. The point is, she'll be thinking about you.

She might bring it up next time you see her, but you can say you didn't see her, were in a hurry, etc.

If you're never going to see her again, then you're screwed!!
 

"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.

This is an excellent point. I made a post in a thread a few days ago about how a women's imagination is our most powerful weapon and that we really need to utilize it more.
