"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.

She Blocked Me Wtf?!

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

The OP is a ****ing idiot. He keeps posting about the same girl and refuses to accept any advice we give him. Please ban this incorrigible AFC!

****ing idiot would have had this girl or better yet, many others if he put our advice into practice. OP you are ****ing pathetic, in fact you are possibly psychotic. Get yourself checked out.

(We all know he needs this post to set him straight.)
