"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.

3. Do something that you're talented in and develop it into a strength. I think it's better if it's challenging (has the potential for failure and embarrassment) and involves real people. But can be mostly done alone and preferably in our safe and secure place. For example, I have an online business and work from home. I mostly work with people virtually but I still have to meet actual people.
I agree with your post, and that's how I define being an introvert. It's all about your energy. Introverts need time to themselves to recharge their energy. Being around people drains their energy.

Like you say above, if you can do something that mixes solitude with socializing, that's perfect for introverts. Resilient talked about playing guitar. So if you play in a band, you get to interact with people. But you also get to use your alone time for prep work, like learning songs and practicing your instrument. Perfect activity for an introvert.
 

"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.
