"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.

Work with a 28 year old woman Im 42. She gives me signs of interest and backs off, classic hot and cold. She has a boyfriend she is obviously bored with. I have asked her out once, she backed out. I proceeded to blow her off for two weeks. She initiates a conversation telling me she is quitting work and finding another job, giving me her number.
I feel like telling her lets fvck and drop the boyfriend. It's tough because of it being work however, don't need any sexual harassment claims against me, LOL. I'm not too wrapped up in her. There are other women just as good looking and I make sure she sees me with them.
My mindset is to just ignore and be polite but I feel I am not playing this right and could be passing up some great sex. Any recommendations?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I would say this, "When you get another job give me a call, BUT know that I do not see women who are sleeping with their boyfriends. No triangles for me ".
