"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.

I'm sorta making my own bible, which will be highly organised and have a more logical progression to it than the current one. It'll also feature my own notes and comments on the material (on all the posts I comment on i'll try and contact the authors) Anyone who
wants to it's when it's finished is more then welcome.

Does anyone have any old and/or lost/deleted Pook posts. And for that matter also Anti-dump posts. and any important but lost posts.

Could you upload them some where or maybe pm me and we'll arrange contact or sumthing.

Cheers guys.
 

"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.
