"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 "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Should I try again?

There's this girl I've known for a while now through a social group. I've always sensed some attraction between us despite her being in a LTR. Anyway about 6 months ago when she was going through a "this isn't going anyway phase" we had lunch a couple of times, saw each other in social settings and we constanlty flirted with kino etc and i noticed a lot of interest signals. I asked her out 1on1 a couple of times but she once cancelled on me and then suggested we go out with mutual friends. I got a bit pissed off, felt a bit misled and walked-away, even though she was still with her b.f.

Now I hear her LTR is totally over.. should I go for it again even though I created some bad vibes between us & shown my cards?

Forum, please advise as I've gone down the AFC route far to many times before!

thanks
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I wouldn't, but it's your decision as to walk away or lay your hand down again.
I would recommend moving on, but that's just me.

If you truly do like this girl then go for it, but be warned that she could use you as a rebound just to get him jealous then go back to him.

Just beware of her intentions, and dont get to attached to fast.
