"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.

Curious if any of you do this with your partners to help direct where you get your outfits. I guess searching for costumes from Amazon works, but hope there might be better ways.
 

"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.

I always thought that playing dress up was for kids and transvestites.

Most serious cosplayers make their own. But with that in mind you'd probably be able to find things on etsy and have them custom made.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

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.

I have a movie replica Heath Ledger Joker outfit. The whole thing, shoes, socks, prosthetic scars and all.
I also have the Nurse Joker outfit. I was invited to a weekend long Halloween thing last year and ordered
the outfits from a chinese tailor, then promptly I went and got covid so couldn't go. But the idea was to dye
my long hair once but wear a different outfit on each night. I'll get some use out of them this year. I was really
looking forward to it last year, was gutted that I had to cancel .
