"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 just feel like some of my friends use me. I thought about this the other day after I brought two of my friends over to his house to hang out. Also, here I give two other friends rides home like every day, and not once have they asked me to hang out, or told me about so-and-so's party.
Im kinda pissed off because of this; not because i mind doing the things, i just want some reciprocity.

How can i get them to start returning the favor?

Don't always be there for them. Show them that you aren't going to give them a ride every day. Next time they come up to you expecting a ride say that you have to be somewhere and make them walk home.

Get something to do. Therefore you wouldnt have time. Ask them for favours too. If they refuse, you'll want to reconsider what kind of people they really are.
