šŖ Man Up Mission: Flirtation Coffee Station
The easiest way to flirt at Starbucks. Your step-by-step mission is here

Greetings, gentlemen!
Each week, we deliver a āMan Up Missionā, designed to help you see tangible results in your dating life.
Your mission is always directly connected to the latest edition of The Dating Dose. Before diving in, make sure you've taken a look at it otherwise the mission wonāt make much sense!
You can find it here.

MAN UP MISSION...šŖ
Flirtation Coffee Station š

š¬ āFlirtation Coffee Stationā is about leaning into your authentic flirting persona!
Over the next 7 days, your mission is to simply buy one woman a coffee! Follow the steps below.
Step 1 - Find a busy coffee shop that's frequented by women in your age range. The ambiance should feel comfortable, warm and welcoming. Starbucks is usually a safe bet.
Step 2 - See someone youāre drawn to? Take a seat at the next table. Spend some time (at least 30 mins) in your own activity, whether that's reading, working, or simply enjoying your coffee.
Step 3 - When youāre ready for a refill, ask her if she can watch your stuff. Say something likeā¦
āHey, sorry to bother you. Do you mind keeping an eye on my stuff while I grab some more coffee?ā
Step 4 - Bring her back a coffee (or other treat ā a cake pop is kinda cute!) as a thank you. Smile as you put it down on her table (you donāt need to hand it to her. Subtle actions and respecting her space are important). And say something likeā¦
āThanks for watching my stuff, this is for youā or āA little thank you for watching my stuffā or āGot you this. Thanks for watching my stuffā
Step 5 - As you settle back into your seat, gauge her reaction and follow her lead. If she keeps to herself, all good! Your mission ends here and you did a great job! Bravo šš½ However, if she seems warm and receptive, engage in some light conversation. Say something likeā¦
āHow's your day going so far?ā or āThat looks interesting, what are you working on / reading?ā
(āQuestion-style complimentsā like we shared in the last Dating Dose can work well here too.)
Last Step - Go home and reflect on the following questions:
How did the mission make you feel?
On a scale of 1-10, what was your confidence level before the mission VS after?
What were 3 positive takeaways from the mission?
If you could do it over, what might you do differently?
How can you be more authentic next time?
And thatās it! Remember, Man Up Missions are about YOU, not anyone else. The point here is to get better at flirting, talking to women and feeling more confident. The more you practice, the better you will get - guaranteed! So shoot your shot, and detach from the outcome.
Have fun. You got this! šŖš½
