"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.

Men, this is a perfect example of what happens when the basics aren’t handled before the marriage. Be on the lookout for a thread on what to handle and how to handle it when laying the groundwork for a LTR. The responsibility is YOURS and yours alone. The woman is incapable of doing this. You can get astounding levels of agreement and devotion from her when you know how to do this. It is imperative that a man steps up to the plate and lays out the parameters.

Hint: It isn’t done directly. It is fine via the fine art of musing about life in her presence. The power of subtlety is enormous.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

If she hates you during pregnancy, then it's normal. Your guts is right.
