"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.

It's funny you'd be addressed as "Sir" considering your attitude makes you sound like a child.

I feel the same way and im only 21. When theres someone helping me and theyre a year younger, calling me sir isnt necessary in such an informal situation.

This is one of the small things that is wrong with this world. People have forgotten about respect and manners. If people were more respectful of their elders, you would understand the history & meaning behind being called Sir. Its meant as a compliment and a sign of respect, thats why multi million dollar corporations who's goal is to make as much money as possible train their employees to do so.

A lesson from the money hungry corporations could be learned here.

Question for you Beavis.

Do you find taking such a negative view helps your situation? I'm not disagreeing with what you say but I don't see the point in looking for a negative in every situation.

Interesting accusation coming from the guy who asked why we need morals.
That seems quite cynical to me.
Besides, lighten up. There are times when it's used respectfully, but more often then not, it's just as I described. I find it amusing when I hear guys ripping each other's heads off, and calling each other Sir. See? Humor.
 

"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.

Maybe it had nothing to do with you? Perhaps they refer to all non-teenage men as "sir" when doing their jobs.

Plus, what's so bad about being called "sir"? It's a respect thing, isn't it?

Thats entirely the point of my thread. I don't need morals to be a good person or to have a positive outlook on life. I don't see anything cynical about it.

I just get tired of the negativity in here sometimes and I was just trying to promote a more positive agenda.

At McD's, the 'sir' means nothing; don't worry about it.

However, if you are hitting on a girl or she thinks you are, and she calls you 'sir,' that means 'get away from me, you creepy old loser.' I have had a very attractive young employee at Home Depot call me sir - she's just used to every guy hitting on her. I wasn't even trying to, mostly just laughing at her for climbing a ladder in front of me and sticking her ass right in my face. But she thought I was, thus the 'sir.' It's a polite way of saying "you have no chance, buddy."
 

"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 was 1st called "Sir" when I was walking around the streets of Orlando one day when I was 18. I wasn't pissed off, just shocked. She asked for directions and I told her "I'm not sure, I'm not from around here." As if the big block letter George Mason shirt didn't speak volumes on that.
