"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.

Hey, i've got a a friend of mine i want to text in new zealand but it never seems to go through?

I'm currently in Australia, newcastle (near sydney) and want to send a text to someone in wellington, new zealand. Anyone have any experience in these matters? the ones i send to the US go through just fine...dunno what's up with this though. I'm on the 'three' network.
 

"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.

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.
