"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.

Very very strange timing on her part. Like ive said in previous posts things have been alittle rough with me and my current girlfriend. Suddenly i get this email from a girl i dated about 4 years back. We didnt end things on bad terms, she was a career woman. She pretty much ended up getting transfered to an office about 2,000 miles from where we both grew up. Anyway she emails me to see how i am, she says she has thought about calling me for the past 2 years. She says she moved back to our home state and that she is getting married in June. I emailed her back and said congrats on the engagement and also told her i thought about calling her over the past few years to catch up.... anyway she sends me another email saying she wished i would have called her and how we had so much in common. I seriously do not want to screw up her engagement in anyway however we were really good friends before we started dating. IS it possible to try and be friends with her without screwing up what she has going on now ?
 

"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.

It sounds more to me like she is rubbing it in your face and wants some kind of validation or some sort of reaction out of you. This chick is doing this for her ego trip, i doubt you were the only ex she called and announce "na na na na na i'm getting married, in your face".

No. You want to bang her and if her future husband has any balls he wouldn't want her old fvcks hanging around.

Nevermind "friends". She contacted you to in order to get one last fack in with you while she can. See, she would be "cheating" if she did it while she was married... or a least, that's what she'll tell herself.

But why stop at just one fack? Who gives two raw sh!ts about the AFC she's marrying?

"Don't want to screw up her engagement" :rolleyes: What a bunch of crap.

Hit it or forgit it.

Shouldn't have even replied to her. Go find some new pvssy. I'd probably tell her husband-to-be that she's contacting you, so at least you tried. Somebody needs to teach chicks like this a lesson.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Funny, call me crazy but what if she is looking to see if she still has a chance with you?
What if she doesn't really want to marry that guy, and is hoping for you to give her a reason to call it off?
If you were/are in love with her, I would definitely talk to her.
And find out the truth.
Maybe she wants to break it off, and wants to be with you instead.

I think this is the best reason she is calling you. Maybe you guys really hit it off and she is reminiscing on the past and hoping to recapture what was lost.

Its like the scene in Spiderman 2 where MJ tells Peter Parker that she is getting married even though in the movie we all know that she does not love the guy and is just trying to get a reaction from PP for him to make a move on her.

Id say give it one last chance and see how it goes.

Lets suppose that you and she meet and the old spark is re-ignited,
Then she "realizes" that you and she are "soulmates" and meant to be together . She dumps her current B/f after a night in the sack with you.
You and she see each other for a year or so and eventually become engaged.
How would you ever really know for sure then that she would NOT be emailing her other past B/fs and pulling the stunt that she is pulling with you right now.

She is currently emailing you for some 'payoff' for HER.. She is a woman. She plays mind games for HER benefit . She is unconcerned about the potential damage that her email to you is potentially going to cause to her marriage if it were ever discovered by her AFC husband,..

This woman is a princess brat who likes fvcking with mens minds for some kind of ego gain.

I would reply politely and tells her Good Luck and Goodbye .

Jophil.

I say bust a move to the point that she expresses blatant sexual interest, and if that happens, take a photo of her butt naked with an engagement ring on and sent it to her fiance so he knows he's banging a slag. That's IF she's looking to cheat, if not then leave her alone and do not validate or supplicate to her attention wh0ring if any.

No one contacts their ex-boyfriend to tell him that she is getting married unless she is actually inviting that ex-boyfriend to the wedding. Something is up.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Its all her fault anyway... take the chance while you can and don't let your conscience talk you out of it... If thats what she wants then its her risk, not yours..

Whatever you do, dont take this woman seriously. If you can hit it, and want to hit it, do so. But please for the love of God, dont fall for her again. No one just digs up an ex just to "catch up."
