"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.

Be at lunch on a busy day. All of your friends are there for a table for 3 or family restaurant( If you can still find them) Alway set up a form of payment so the service industry doesn't make mcdonals your enemy. Adapt and if you are on a date. You are calling it a date but your friends see the twenty dollar tip. You win in marriage because the next generation see's you are not the typical attorney. Being the companys employee doesn't take you to the life insurance plan no one can get. Free drink, parking, etc

p.s.- Another morning

p.s.- Work week ahead...

"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.

Be me, hate tipping. On a date, go to McDonalds, order from dollar menu. Ask for treat of the week. Dinner and an action date. Problem Solved.

Uhh...I have no idea what you are even trying to say because this reads like a bunch of gibberish someone put thru a translator that doesn't make any sense nor form proper sentences .

Understandable if English isn't your first language...if it is...geesh...you have a lot bigger issues than women to worry about. Like going back in time and getting a grade school education.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

You gave a $20 tip for a hamburger at McDonalds to try to get the cashier's phone number and your friends thought you were crazy? Did she give you her number?

Well My french is not so great. Yea was just showing how you could be paying at a restaurant. From you would look at it as forty dollar tip. Canada usually expensive when you can travel. You could get a girls phone number in Florida. Date is like '98 Hooters (deerfield beach) I'm sure free drinks and save you the journey. Like if you could find a cashier like that in a starbucks. Yea most breakfast or where you would get breakfast does not accept apple pay, cards, etc. Funny if you "date" and try to keep a day Employmentt

Can I suggest you compose your messages here in your native language and either use macOS’s built in translate function to translate it to English or google Translate and paste the result into the forum? It is very hard follow your meaning the way you’re posting now.
 

"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.

Did you someone forget how to spell? Can you fix the title of the thread to be valid English?

"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 handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

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.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I am sure there is some creative style to this thread, much like a arthouse film or exotic art of sorts. I am baffled. What type of art thread is this? It is a new thing.
