"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.

Two years have passed and I’m still in love with my ex-wife. We’re divorced and two of our three kids are with her. We decided to separate ways when we thought we’re still young and immature to be tied in marriage. We often see each other, no bitterness involve. Sometimes, I go to her place to visit our kids, and vice versa. But yeah, I’m still into her. I want her back. I was the one who took the action for divorce so it’s me who should win her back - again… My friends suggested moves they saw in marriage tours, like asking my ex-wife for a date, court her and if things go well after, propose to her again. Would that be a good idea? 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.

Why did you divorce her?

If you divorced her, what makes you think the same issues, your or hers, wouldn't surface again?
