"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.

Alrite I was at my school's homecoming game and right after there was a dance, started talking to some girls. Two seem really interested in me, one a little more than the other. We hang out for about an hour and both girls #-closed me. yea they asked for mine instead of me asking for theirs. I've been hanging out with texting the one, who seemed more interested in me for a few weeks now. Just now the other girl texted me and said " Hey do you like her, she really likes you and she'd be willing to break up with her bf to date you". What should I do?
 

"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.

If you like the girl, I would reply to the other girl's text by saying you would ask her out *if* she was single.

Content wise, something witty, something clever. Sure. As far as the answer: what do you want?

I like the girl, I'm just waiting for her to dump the afc that is her boyfriend, it's just a time game now
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I like the answers that Stblack and Five to One gave.

No need to beat around the bush. You feel like a girl because she made the move before you. No worries, but if you want her, just go for it.
