"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.

I dont have facebook..but I was told the day after my gf and I got together..this was tuesday actually..she changed her marital status to taken or whatever...so there u go.


also dont talk to her that much.

Ive been talking to her a lot....and last night I did for 3 hours on the phone.

and im literally sick to my stomach about this now.

I am mad at myself for letting it go like that..I realize this girl is falling in love with me..but ive given way to much.

and im going to take that time back.
 

"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.

Yea I did a lot of things wrong, the internet is bad bad bad dammit. I'd get back from practice and was too tired to really do anything else so I just sat at the computer. That's it I'm going to the bar tonight and talking to people in person.

And to frivolousz21 get all the time back you can, and learn as I also am how to waste less of it in the future, then you won't have to take back much anymore.
