"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.

Is working in an office like jail time for money?

"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.

It's what you make it.

BTW, my "Jail" is 1.5 miles from my home, takes me 3 minutes to drive there, and pays me 60K per year.

I get up at 8:20 AM and I also come home for lunch for an hour.

It depends what you do, really, as well as your 'tude. I'd hate to telemarket or to work at a call-center, or whatever. However, my major is computer science, and spending hours a day writing code and that sort of thing would be nothing short of awesome.

As for right now. I have a pretty chill job. I make 11 dollars an hour delivering auto parts to shops in my pickup truck. When I'm between runs, I can go shopping, run errands, eat, etc, all as long as I make it back to the warehouse in time for the next run. Basically, I drive around listening to the radio, and get paid for it.
