"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.

like that one "ok bye!". Makes it sound that you had the parting shot!. Make sure you delete that number so you don't try texting after a few drinks

uh the number burn into my head, its still kind of hard to let go cause people keep bringing her up, they tell me I should call her and blah blah. Even one of my close friend keeps urgeing me to call her because it seem werid that she just put me in the zone and is convince something happen. Sit down, weigh the pros and cons, that the risks involved could be worth it.
