You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Great for you. I'll keep my 'unemployable' PhD, lol, as I look at 5K of stainless steel on my wrist while I type this response.Poonani Maker said:
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Please tell me you have a dark sense of humor or sarcasm...6-heads lewis said:
your work shouldn't be about what some hors think you should be making. Work is the backbone of a man. He has to be happy doing it and has to be able to survive on it, that is what counts. The type of women that look towards your wallet are the women you should try to avoid anyway.Poonani Maker said:
Intellectual snobbery doesn't pay the bills. Who really cares about jewelry anyway? Well lots of people base their self worth and esteem on external material things, if thats what you want go for it. I don't disagree with the rest of your post, I could have gone into a 40,000+ career after college but instead I'm waiting tables and going 2 more years for my master's in org. leadership. Hope it pays off.Road Demon said:
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.
Good point. I pretty much love my job. I stay in shape. I could do without management or corporate harassment (I make more than they do lol), and other stresses of the job, but I get to spend most of my day with customers who love me and away from supervision who nit-pick everything I do. I can take care of my woman, and as many kids as she wants because of my union job. That is the lure to a decent home-making content back-scratching housewife should I choose to pick one from the litter.Joe The Homophobe said:

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.
When i got home i started feeling sick (probably from all the insulation in the attics) then i fell asleep for like 13 hours...didnt even care about taking off my contacts i was sooo tired...my body was exhausted. I think im going to have to re-think my career choices...Ken785 said:
