"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.

the hottness of other guys or girls at their school.

Like everyone has a friend who always says "my school has no hot guys/girls" (or some variation).

I remember once i overheard this ugly underclassmen girl talking to a group of ugly underclassmen guys. the guys had just discovered talking to girls and so they were asking her who she thought was hot in the school. Of course she went on about how this school has no hot guys and that everyone was ugly.

Its such a lame excuse for being lame.

It really just irks me cuz its such a blatant lie unless you're homeschooled and your classmates are your siblings or somehting, lol.

thoughts? comments?
am i being unreasonable?
I guess it really doesnt affect me what others do, but something about it is just like "grow up". anyone know where im getting at?
 

"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.

I laugh when people say that, because that's there excuse for not having a girlfriend/boyfriend.
