"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.

Alright guys, I'll make this one as short as possible (because from previous experience, you get more responses that way ;) ).

Anyway, I recently started seeing this HB8. She's funny, she's attractive... the usual. We've gone on about 3 dates and kissed close each time. The kino's there, the attractions there but I feel as if I messed up last night. We talked on the phone and brought up the idea of having a "relationship" I told her before that I was hurt previously, so I didn't want to rush into anything, and yesterday she kinda said the same thing. As ironic as this may seem, I am kinda disappointed that she agreed, I thought that she wanted me more than just that... idk am I over thinking this, cause I have a date with her today and I want to keep my "laid back" posture. Any comments will be appreciated. Thanx.
 

"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.

So, she's your girlfriend now? Man...sure, ok, wasn't the best way to get it, but you got it.

Just treat her right, and hopefully she'll do the same.
