"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.

okay. theres this one girl and i know shes interested. but i heard from my girl "friend" that she has no time to date and that with friends with benefits, someone usually gets hurt. im not trying to find a relationship either, but more of a friends with benefits. how would i persuade her to want to do something? because at my school, there are not many "fish in the sea" to choose from. i would have moved on if there were. any suggestions would be great! i cant think of anything. thanks!
 

"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.

persuade her? stop thinking so hard. invite her to hang out, make a move, and take it easy. don't put a label on your relationship with her. if she brings it up, tell her what you want, but not until then.

porks right. you gotta not talk about it, just make moves and before you know it you'll be working her over and she didnt even realize you two got that far without any formal relatinoship crap. then just go on acting like nothing happened until you want it again.

Do you have a clipboard? Good. Create a questionnaire, and an application, and attach that to the clipboard. Give her the clipboard and the pen to fill out promptly the next morning. Title: To get into my pants...
