"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.

...Im thinking of starting a powerlifting journal type deal in there, but want to know how interested people would be in it or if everyone just wants to stick with the bodybuilding type stuff.

Yay or Nay?

:woo:
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I'd be most interested in a food journal if you want to include that. I have trouble coming up with good ideas for meals and I don't like depending on suppliments.

LOL that's fine then. I'd love to see if you can actually gain much muscle mass on a Taco Bell diet. If you could buy a simple fat calaper and include your BF% in your reports that'd be great.
