"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

For several reason i am less happy than i was 20 years ago. I feel more on edge

i think others are also. The one that is similar between then and now is that despite having my own anxieties i have some friends who are even more neurotic than I and thats not a good thing for me
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Alcohol and tobacco consumption rates are down, and everyone is miserable, even though we're living to heretofore unprecedented lengths. You all do the math on this subject

More so 30 years ago, because it was pre 9/11 and the economy was great, and by that I mean great for normal people. Jobs grew on trees. At 23, I had a nice condo, 2 cars, no debt, and 50% disposable income.

20 years ago was the sweet spot for technology. There was Internet, but no social media. There were cellphones, but no I-phones. The only thing I can think of that has gotten better are televisions. Everything else just improves corporate profits with each new advancement.
