You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
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.
Pills have about a 5% chance of failing even with proper usage...Originally posted by Hot Ice
Well, I'd imagine if you finger her first, then put your condom on and your fingers touch your ****, you can get a STD easily.
Same thing with semen. Only one little swimmer is needed.
A 33 years old female friend of mine is pregnant and she said she was using pills when she got pregnant. As when she got her first child. That sounds like she has just forgotten to take one, but she says she's sure she hasn't... well, dunno about it.
I guess you just have to know you can be never 100% sure about sex and you take a risk every time you do it. The thing is to minimize risks. And being responsible.
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.
Or crabs... or actually a few other things.Originally posted by penkitten

Wear a condomn and when you are about to blow, pull out. Reduces your chances quite a bit.Originally posted by Jay-X
here in italy u can't take pills if u r younger than 18 and u don't have a doctor's recepee (in order to have this, u have to tell your parents... no way, of course...)... suggest me something that i should do... should i just wear a condom and risk pregnancy? (i don't care about STDs, 'cuz i'm her first partner) what do you other underage guys do to prevent pregnancy, besides using a condom?
i thought about jerkin' off 2 times before havin sex with her (in order to reduce the amount of semen), wearin' a condom and doin' it just immediately after she has her things... should i be safe enough this way?
Well, dunno about that. While having sex, the girl should be always wetOriginally posted by Jay-X
that's a good idea, thank u jimbo. it's safer if she's really wet, because u can slide ur d1ck in a easier way, right?
