"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.

we are all put on this earth to interact with others, and out of that interaction, we learn things about ourselves and we grow.
You make it sound as though we were put here by a higher power, and thus imply our life has a purpose or 'method'. Get that out of your head.
