"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.

I have decided to start an Approach Journal. I will write in it everyday, if possible, and tell you what went on at school for the day. I may have nothing to report the first couple of days, but with some support, I'll be able to come up with some good stories and experiences. I figure it will be easier for me to do something, when I have someone to report to. Any help, advice, or (constructive) criticism is welcome.

Thanks and I'll keep you posted,

"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.

I started this journal on Tuesday and missed a day which was uneventful. Today was pretty boring also, except for one interesting thing happened. During the 3rd period of the day I recieved a small slip of paper telling me I have been nominated for prom royalty...I thought that was interesting. I checked it out with all my friends and apparently there is quite a conspiracy behind it(orchestrated by them of course). Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it a good thing to at least be nominated? And here I was thinking that the work was over after I had asked a girl to the dance (a lot of people on the board seem to be having trouble with that part of it). Oh well...

it could be a good thing for you, unless its a bit of a joke. our school rarely gets a serious person to win homecoming or winter court. last year the homecoming king had to weigh at least 350lbs! the band is the cause of all of it tho, so idk if the situation is similar or different at your school.

I know for sure it is at least partly a joke, I am pretty short for a senior (5'4") and they claimed they are going to vote for the tallest girl. But these are my friends and it's not meant for them to laugh at me, they nominated my date too, but I'm sure it's much harder for a girl to get in the running. Yeah, and it's usually not a big joke at my school, either.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
