"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 24 and she's 23.

I understand that any girl you date will have a past, so that isn't really the problem here. The focus of this post is more on learning how to think about the situation so that it won't bother you too much. There's been some good advice on this post that has helped me, and that I think will help others too.

Every woman you meet can say-- 'I had a life before I met you'.

So?

If she told you some things then you will have to deal with it.

One thing to remember here, you are the one sleeping with her now, not some dude from her past.

The real red flag with her is that $25,000 in credit card debt.
