"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.
just a quick question.

"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.

Monday night I went for coffee with this girl (she’s rich). When the bill came the waitress placed it down in front of me. I looked at the waitress in the eye and with my hand pushed the bill over to my girl. The waitress gave an awkward smile and walked off.
Anyway best course of action is to tell her straight out. "you pay for what you buy, you don’t get free meals when you come out with me".

unless she mentions that she is paying her own way, then its assumed that you are , proper ettiquette.
you may have a good surprize when you go to pay the bill and she says no , i pay my own way .
always have enough money on you in case she assumes you are paying. you dont want embarrassment on a date.
it is rude to ask her to pay unless you say " wanna go dutch"
because going dutch means she pays.
myself, i always liked to pay my own way on new dates. and during ltr's i would pay for the whole date every other date.
things are different now that i am about to get married. its kinda like i have my finances and he has his, and we are starting to figure out how to combine them together. this is much tougher than it seems.
