"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 dated a girl once who had no car and had a tree-hugger mentality which soon followed up by her feminist ways which followed by me dumping this broad soon after. At first I didn't mind doing the driving but I had to plan where to go on the basis of me having to go over there and then moving on to another area.

Whilst with another girl in the past I dated who did have a car, there was less of that plus the convenience of getting her to come over to my place. After dating a girl like the above, I made a general decision on not to date any girl that did not have a car.

What do you guys think?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Oh my god I dealt with a year of the no car sh!t. Then when she got a car she dumped me. Figures. Wow man she was 19 and 20 when I dated her wtf...

had to plan my day based on when I would be in the area. Over an hour of my day were spent driving her to and from her house. Pain in the ass. Avoid at all costs.

Yeah, I'd say avoid it. If you get involved with them they'll try to use you as a personal taxi service.

When a girl doesn't own a car, I think that's hot.

Then again, I don't own a car. Even if I did, I would tell her to take public transportation if I ever didn't want to drive her.

God I love tree-huggers, they're so hot.
