"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.

Inside her mind
Damn I didn't agree with everything he said because at times I felt he was to LMSish
But the guy did bring value to the forum

sad day
 

"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.

How did I miss this thread before now??? So sad.

He was a wonderful contributor here, we had many respectful debates and discussions.

Nobody gets out alive at the end of this life and nobody knows how much time the hourglass holds.

His perspective remains here for the benefit of the board....tell your loved ones regularly that you love them and your friends too.

May he RIP....Cheers to a kind dude.

I also completely missed this. I had been wondering in my head where he was as he had been such a consistent (and valuable IMO) poster here the last few years. When I didn't see him posting anymore I wondered.

RIP to you, brother. You will certainly be missed here. So sad.

I personally knew SW15 and was informed by his mom about what happened. Out of respect for the family please stop with the negligience/insurance/who was at fault debate comments and/or take it somewhere else.

Lets keep it about SW15 and his contributions to SS.
You live in Texas? It’s a one hour flight from McAllen to Dallas. I wish he woulda been around for us to hang out, luckily there’s more Texans on this board, but I don’t think his introspective insights can be replaced for a long time.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

What a loss for the board. He was such a presence around here the entire time I've been here posting or lurking. Makes me sad. Godspeed to you SW15.
I can already feel the guy's presence being lost, I feel like this board lost a note or a riff to a melody. Hopefully more newbies comes in and fills the gap, but he's irreplaceable.

@Jesse Pinkman in case you had'nt seen this thread.
From what i seen, you were the one that corresponded with SW15 the most on here.
 

"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.
