"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 was hanging out with some friends the morning after we went partying, we were just shooting the sh!t and feeding our friend's dog, when one of the girls put a dogbone halfway in her mouth and had the dog come and get it from her. It was kind of cute. The other girl (who I have known for a long time but we're not toooo close) said, "Eww, that's gross!" and I replied, "Oh come on, it's not like you haven't put worse things in your mouth before."

I thought it was funny, but it was like dead silence. I'm guessing she was at least slightly offended...did that cross the line? The audience was 2 girls and one guy (who is a major AFC).
 

"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.

if the girl is immature enough to put a dogbone in her mouth then that joke shouldnt be offensive to them

it could be funny, but it's how you say things not what you say. Your question is very situational

Funny to me cause you made a bit of a fool of yourself. But stop worrying if you crossed the line. DJ's don't worry. Have you read the DJ bible good sir?
