"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.

"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.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Just the appearance. Depends on the clothes you wear, how you hold yourself, etc.

Just like how muscular you can appear - tight t-shirts will accenuate your musculature, baggy ones can make you look plain fat.

Don't worry, it's a good thing.

Start working out if you don't do so already. It will improve your posture and make you look an inch taller or so...
