"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.

I've noticed that I look much better in single or simple dual-colored shirts but somehow look much worse in shirts with "busy" prints on them. The "busy" shirt seem to take over and I disappear in them. I also don't have a healthy look in them. This has always been the case even as a teenager.

Anyone know why this is? It's ok if the answer is not that flattering. I want the truth.
 

"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.

the darker your skin the more patterns become a viable option...even french blue dress shirts on very pale people look off. If you are white typically irish, english, nordic ancestry stick to solids mainly...patterns are good for italians, greek, spanish, african, indian etc

think of the beach...tommy bahama busy shirts only look good when you have a tan underlying it.

If you are very white avoid the bright colors yellows, and greens vivid solid polos will make you look like a last minute usher in a golf tournament.
