"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.

everyone is unique, and so are you..you can read all the articles here and still be the same guy, maybe even worse than before..i am not an expert in this area myself..and you know what? NOBODY IS PERFECT. I have this amazing quote i was using..let me ask you something..do you have friends???dont tell me you are living on a tree in an island with wireless broadband telling me this..tell me do you have close relationships with your family or friends? like ONE best friend at least? Notice how you communicate with him. Natural and not worrying about yourself right? you can make jokes that seems so funny although its stupid or lame with him..well here is what i tell you mate.."all your friends started as STRANGERS before you meet them"..and other people are no different..yes not everybody is perfect and may have bad intentions but its best for you that you treat everybody like your best friend..nobody becomes a master don juan instantly..it takes effort(except few talented ones)..hey start off small..make friends..the guy next to you in the bus or this guy in school could make a good friend..you got to make a move
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I do want to better myself. I am trying to figure out a way. I realize no one is perfect, but I think part of my problem comes from some sort of fear of judgement, all these little things I am trying to let go of. That has been my problem, making a move. It feels like something has been wrong with me.
