"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.

After months at this website/community I've been gradually losing the AFC in me... It's time for me to get rid of that guy for good. Towards the end of Spring Break I'm planning to throw a party.

Is there any advice you guys can give me?

Maybe on the lines of how to throw a good party...

Will I be lame for saying "no sex"? I don't want to be cleaning up evidence of used condoms and such.

Music? Money? Beer? What's the situation got to be in these fields?

Anything else? I really need some help here guys.

I'm also going to ask a girl I've been getting to know to go bowling with me...

I'm trying to play it as two people just hanging out and not a date... but to a DJ this is just a stepping stone to a future date.

I'm not a cheap bastard but would a DJ make her pay?

What are the good and bad sides of making her pay?

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

On another note, you could play to see who pays next time. "I win, you pay next time, you win, I'll pay next time"..something like that, maybe.

I like both your ideas.. it reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where this one guy made bets with women that he knew he'd lose (on purpose) just to win a dinner with them.

Anyone have an input on the party?
