"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.

I have a few problems that really hold me back from being in the game.

1. I don't have a job im trying to get one, idk how girls my age are about guys having jobs but my guess is it would be a big plus. And right now im broke so no money to pay for dates.

2. I have no way of transportation for dates, i have a drivers permit but i have no car or no way of picking up a girl and taking her out so that confuses me. I can always meet a girl somewhere, maybe cacth a cab their but idk.

3. I am terrible with openers, ive been constantly searching this site. Most of the time, the only time i can talk to girls is before or after class, or in the hallways. But idk what to say because theres really nothing to comment on sometimes except their looks. Also since my mother shelters me so much(nothing i can do about it), she doesn't let me go to parties so the only time i see girls is in school.

Can anyone advise me on how i can improve my situation??
 

"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.

1. Jobs just give you less time to game and/or spend time with your girl.

2. Like you said, meet them there.

3. "Hi." Make any comment to start with after that, it doesn't matter. Make fun of the teacher, ask if she understands the homework. Give her a hard time for not doing her essay. Anything works!

and money, and it shows off that you can take a responsibility, and the fact that you're making a living off of yourself and dont have to depend on your parents that much gives you a big confidence boost.

just dont get a crappy job in food service. aim for small retail stores. I work at brookstone and its the greatest job on earth. Talk to people all the time, great coworkers, and you get to hit on all the mall girls that come in.

Where I be at
True dat clix.
Being a waiter at a nice resturaunt, or at a coffeeshop is always tight.
My friend got a job at J Crew and said its awesome because he gets awesome discounts, plus gets to talk to people all the time.

But really, if you play sports and stuff, having a job is hard.
Keeping on top of school along with that is even harder.

A girl wont think less of you if you don't. If she does then just superman that hoe.

please stop making excuses.. just do tha damn thing. try making a better relationship with ur mom. get closer to her. suprise her with a gift once in a while. do your chores, dont talk back to her nomatter how wrong she is. dont tell her the parties have drugs/alchohol at them and she will most likely give u a ride to the party and other places.
 

"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.

Please, the only way my mom would take me to a party is if she was there to baby sit me the whole way. She always wants to know where i am, she wont even let me go over a friends house without becoming good friends with their parents. And due to her work hours i couldn't sneak out to a party. And i wasn't making excuses, i was adressing these problems so they wont affect me that bad in the long run.
