"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

I forgot to qualify a girl and she wont go out on a date with me probably out of fear Id do her. Im thinking about pursuing others and in about a month Im just going to try again. Id have to ignore her for the time being. Any suggestions to my plan?

That was about it; I only chased her for about a few days and still maintained my mystery.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

by chase I mean I tried asking her out but she gave me excuses. In my last phone call to her, I just left her a message about how I was disappointed but not mad.
