"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 number closed this girl at a club last week and she's a real cutie. I setup a date with her last night for this friday and she gave me her addy and i'll be picking her up to go downtown and walk around. Here's the kicker. She moves two days after the date from what she's told me until the summer time.

Thoughts?

My thoughts are to go for the f-close which is a no-brainer on most dates anyways but now moreso because there are no-strings attached. She's showing very high levels of interest but there will obviously not be much time for a 2nd date so this is one of those less common situations. Anyone got some ideas?

Walk, movie at my place, f-close, postcard?
:D
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

One other thing is that she asked me to give her a call again before the date even though the time and place for picking her up is set. confirm tomorrow or the day of earlier in the day?

Any feedback people?
