OK I wanted to give an Status update on my situation. Ok so I went to jail a year ago yesterday the judge gave me 225 days on two misdemeanors. So my release was October 5th 2015. Had to struggle to find a job with a record. But I found one and within my job I found a way be my own boss. I have also moved into my own house. Its a really nice and I'm comfortable here. I have a lawyer paid and ready to go to war for me. Now I just struggle a little with loneliness my brother talked about moving in but I had house rules and I'm paranoid of my family since they helped lock me up. So him and my mom stopped talking about it. Also I am not spinning any plates. I'm thinking I need more time. I do not have any transportation as of yet except my work vehicle and taking a semi everywhere is not feasible :-( . With all that said I am happy with the way things are going and proud of myself these things maybe basic for some of you but for me its been a struggle. My next goal is a car and to date around. Thank you all for the support
"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.

"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.
