"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.

Backbreaker I enjoyed your post, but I am one of those guys that paid the price for stepping out of my comfort zone. By doing so, I almost lost everything and when I got back on my feet after a failed business, I was injured requiring neck surgery.

This injury and a subsequent injury, has really put a damper with my life. I ventured out and took a chance and BAM!!!!! My life has changed forever and I will never get some of my life back because of it.
 

"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.

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

this compaines story is actually in the laws of success book that was written 70 years ago. the company even then was old. they have been around a while.

what the site doesn't tell you is that the founder of the company was 100% paraplegic. could not so much as get out of bed, and founded one of the largest and most successful sausage companies in the united states.

so yes why I am sypmethic for you, you can either cry and feel bad for yourself or you can move on and learn from your mistakes and make something of yourself.
