"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.

Yea basically I live on a small uni campus and I think part of my problem is that if I fail or make a stupid approach I'm afraid of the gossip. I see alot of the same people everyday especially past a certain time. Is this rational thinking and how do I get over it?
 

"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.

What kind of "stupid approach"? Do you plan to fling poo at her or something?

The only kind of "stupid approach" is an awkward one. In which case you need to work on your basic social skills. But I find it hard to believe that you're that inept in that department.

So stop being scared of the ladies, stop taking yourself so seriously, and go out and get you some.

Hell, I've got scrawny gay-looking friends who just sit in class and pull ass. Even when I was a chump in college, I'd at least have one or two opportunities a year get THROWN at me without even trying.

And yeah, your'e in the wrong forum.
