The next time you are at your favorite coffee shop and someone catches your eye
here are ten interesting coffee facts that you can use to break the ice:

studies have shown that coffee can increase stamina and the overall length of intimate sessions.
2
Although coffee has been a part of the Arab culture for thousands of years
it did not become part of the western world until the 1500s. Before that time
