"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

So there's this very nice smash and dash motel on the main avenue on the way to my girlfriends house which we go to bang when we get horny at the end of a date.

Today I woke up and checked my phone. There was a text from her saying she is very mad. We talked over the phone and she told me she can't find her favorite and most expensive watch. She says she is almost certain that she wore it friday march 31.

That day we went to the movies and then on the way to her house we stoped for a bang session at said very nice motel. She says she must have taken her watch off after banging to get into the shower and forgot it there. She called the place on the phone but obviously nobody has reported a forgotten watch.

She says she is very mad about the watch and that it's my fault. I told her that I understand that she is mad But that it's not my fault she forgot it. She's also saying she never wants to ever go to a motel/hotel with me again (guess I'll never take her on vacations haha).

Let me know what would you do in this case and give me advice on how to handle this.
 

"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.

There's nothing much you can do. Tell her that you're sorry she lost her watch but you didn't lose it for her. She simply forgot it and if she wants to be mad over you for that then that's on her and there's nothing you can do about it.

You've made your "apology" about it so anytime she brings it up. Just tell her "Well, like I said, it's sad you lost your watch but it wasn't my fault" and don't talk about it again. If she keeps hammering about it, say "It seems like you're really stuck on blaming me for the loss of you watch. I'll give you some space to keep blaming me for it" and walk away.

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
