"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.

..doesn't see him as a bf?

I always like to have hope, but sometimes you need to close shop and try some new things. She gave him the "ljbf" talk, and yet he still insists on trying to get with her. She's very flirty with him but has made it clear that she doesn't like him. It's just sad to see him trying to catch a fish that keeps on going in circles around his bait.

Just tell him exactly what you just said.

Harsh, but he'll thank you for it.

You don't tell the friend. You sit back and watch the show!

sometimes when you say something, a friend will see it as you are jealous and whatnot and it doesnt come out like you meant well by telling them.

decide on your choice of words if you are going to tell him, perhaps... i like it when the chicks chase me . its fun.

see if he will start asking how to make them chase him instead of him jumping thru hoops for them.

this is a good start.
