"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.

My company has asked me if I would like to work in Warsaw for a couple of months. Does anyone know what it is like there? American friendly? How are the women there?
 

"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.

Only passed through Poland... Never stayed there so I am not one to comment much. However, I cannot imagine the women in Poland being worse than the women in the US. The women in the US have the highest obesity rate of ANY country. The entitlement mentality of women from the US is LEGENDARY, even my family back in Serbia view American women as being mostly entitled princesses.
Most people in Eurpoe speak English anyway. You will be fine in that respect.
