"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.

There's a girl I've been working on. At first I suspected she had a boyfriend and I thought there was no interest there. But she was giving me all sorts of buying signals and she has never mentioned any boyfriend to me. But I found out through other people that she does have a boyfriend but she's thinking of breaking it off with him.

She's even going on a date with me tomorrow. Is this a sign of interest? Should I just proceed as though she's single? You'd think she would have brought it up by now if she wanted me to know that she's got a bf.
 

"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.

Sounds like she's thinking of breaking up with him, but isn't sure if it's the right solution or not. So she's giving you a chance, not only to see what you're like, but also to dip her toes in the whole dating world again.

It'll be interesting to see how she handles the whole thing. She may be nervous about it and so feeling you out more like a potential future relationship thing. Or she may be looking for a super-fun time.

I'd simply advise you to enjoy yourself and not take the situation super serious. She may be rusty and nervous, and off her own game a bit. Show her a good time, and maybe not push for anything too much from her, personally I'd go in thinking the night may end in a kiss, but not much more (again, unless she's in a 'fvck my boyfriend') kind of mood.

There is conversation about this under the trail end of "I have a boyfriend" - Archive. Little response because this never happens...
