"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.

Should I just give up with OLD as an option? Banned from Tinder

Yesterday morning I opened up a tinder profile, tried some different pictures compared to what I tried a while ago. Anyway, I didn't go back on until later that evening, started swiping and I ended up with over a dozen matches, whereas before I literally would get 0. I messaged all of them, and a few messaged back, some pretty quickly and others a couple hours later. Most of them were just a few exchanges that did no result in any conversation. However, with one of them we ended up messaging back and forth for an hour and in that time frame I already knew what part of town she lived at, availability and then we decided to meet up on the weekend. I asked for her number but didn't get a reply back, which I didn't think much of because it was already past 12 so I figured she went to bed.

Anyway, I wake up this morning to find my account had been banned lol. It's not the end of the world but it was super frustrating because when I finally was getting results, especially to that degree, it was all for nothing because of my profile being taken down.

Bumble doesn't work on my phone for some reason, so that's out. Online dating sites (POF, match, etc.) the quality of women in my area is abysmal on there, so I'm not even going to bother. Also, in the past I've messaged women on there, had actual chat conversations go back and forth for a good amount of time, ask for the number and poof.....gone.

I feel like just totally writing this off as ever being an option for me because I either get no results or when I do something always happens that blocks it.
 

"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.

Get a new phone number and change up the photo, or at least do some JPG quantizing on it (I have a hunch they check for folks with the same exact profile image file).

When I go to login with my phone number it goes right this. I could easily use a different picture for my profile but I'm not entirely sure how I go about working around this ban.

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Well, asides from having to let everyone know what my new number is that wouldn't be that big of a deal.
Set up a free Google Voice account. It gives you a number that lets you call/text people over wifi. Forward that number to your current cell number. Bam

Making people think they are being punished by banning them on Tinder? We are in a strange world when they do you a favor and call it punishment.

They do stuff like that on social media, which is all controlled by leftists.

You have no business on social media as a masculine man unless it’s a part of your business model. You’re right. It’s feminine. Just look at all those betas. Hahahaha
Poor little boys.
 

"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.
