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.
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 started because I wanted to promote my blog and reach a wider audience so I followed other gamers. But it seems to be all a big "look at me look at me" type thing a bunch of guys bragging about the chicks they slayed and other nonsense, on how good their game is yet their is no proof just a bunch of hot air. I noticed that some guys literally are updating their tweets 20+ times a day, it makes me question if they even have a life or if their that starved for attention where they have to tweet so much and every little thingPRMoon said:
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.
You should search for "achievement hunter" They have a bunch of dedicated gamers as followers. Typically you want to play the numbers, if you want someone to follow you then you check how many people they are following vs how many followers they have. If they follow more than they have followers then it's a safe bet you follow them, they followSolomon said:
