"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.

The other day i was really nervous about a date with a beautiful woman i met, i was truly just losing it and plain unable to focus, we agreed to meet in a little bar and while i was there i ordered a double cognac straight and drank it inmediately, the drink calmed me down and i was able to be in complete control by the time she got there, obviosuly the date went well but i started thinking about the effect the alcohol had on me, i have always drank and never had a problem stopping, actually, i would say i drink far less than most of my friends, but i am wondering if i am just making too much a big deal out of nothing.

Guys?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Yes you are making a big deal out of nothing.
