"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.

"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.

Just another example of how, in general, there is an inverse relationship between the effectiveness of a technique and how fancy-looking it is.
QFT

Earlier this year at work there was some kind of martial arts demo in one of the lawns. I approach and it was very similar to what the guy was doing (what's it called anyway?) Based on the training I've received, all those flailing arms and legs are prime targets for me to lock/break. :D
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

There is a reason why there are arms flailing and it looks like a flashy spectacle....ITS SUPPOSE TO LOOK LIKE THAT !!!! ITS A DANCE !!!!

Your suppose to look at it and appreciate the movement and extravagance of the movements ! Your not suppose to climb into an MMA ring and use it in a real fight.

this is random...especially if your using that analogy for the video which is comparing apples to oranges.

Using a powerclean technique to lift a barbell off the floor looks fancy to someone who doesn't know how to powerclean. Does that negate its efficiency ?

Haha! Thanks for the link. Now I know that 1) this is fake and that 2) it's called Capoeira.

Well its staged cause its in that movie Never Back Down but if you notice you see the actual movie camera on the top right somewhere near the end of the video, meaning this is just someone who brought their own camera to film the scene while it was being made for the actual film. In the actual film its more of a close up on the black guy when he's doing his flips.
