"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

Oh, and beards don't make you cooler by the way. Fascists and *******s like Fidel Castro, Osama Bin Laden and Che Guevara had them.

Who else had beards?
  • Spartans, including King Leonidas I. Cowards were punished by having their beards sheared off.
  • The most elite of the ancient Egyptians had beards. A metal false beard was even worn by queens.
  • All pre-Alexander Greek men had beards. To be without a beard was to be considered womanly. Alexander began the clean-shaven trend merely to protect his soldiers from giving their enemies something to grab onto in the heat of battle.
  • All pre-Scipio Roman men had beards. Shaving was an unheard-of practice. Scipio began the clean-shaven trend merely to distinguish Romans from the Greeks.
  • Only veterans of Napoleon's Grande Armée were permitted to grow beards.
  • Who else had a beard? Charles Dic kens, Charles Darwin, Karl Marx, Friederich Nietzsche, Sigmund Freud, Albert Einstein, from Abraham Lincoln to William Taft, The Beatles, Zeus, Poseidon, Jesus, Moses, Abraham, St. Peter, Rastafarians, Robert E. Lee, Ulysses S. Grant, William Sherman, Zakk Wylde, Dimebag Darrell, Dave Grohl, Socrates, Aristotle, Plato, Galileo Galilei, Leonardo da Vinci, Archimedes, Michelangelo, Donatello, Johannes Kepler, Saladin, Stonewall Jackson, Dumbledore, Merlin, Santa Claus, Gandalf, and Gimli.
You clearly know nothing.

"There are two kinds of people in this world that go around beardless — boys and women — and I am neither one." - Greek saying
 

"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.

I think it has to be done right though. Obviously, you don't want to look like you just came out of the woods or off a raft after being stranded. Like anything related to grooming, it should be well kept and look like you take care of yourself. Personally, I think you'd have a better chance with a beard then a stache.

Beards in my opinion have to fit your style and personality. Then they work very well. Otherwise i think you are better off clean shaven.
 

"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.

Snowdog clearly knows nothing about fascism either. Castro is communist and fascism is anti-communist, and Che Guevara was a marxist.
