"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.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I've had three different people try to get me into World of Warcraft. I played for a couple hours but it just seems so boring. I don't know how people can play that game.

Someone posting on SoSuave probably wouldn't be able to understand how people can just waste their lives playing a virtual game that will be outdated in the next 2 years when they could be improving themselves in a variety of ways. But surprisingly there are people out there like that. Oh well, just makes it easier for us.

It's boring because you have a life, you've got other things to do that are way more fun. By comparison it really is boring.

I'm having a similar situation even picking up my racing games, my favourite. I fvcking used to love racing on the Xbox and PS2 but now I have to dust them once in awhile. I prefer to take my car out on some hills north of town or go hang out with some friends.

Well, I used to be addicted to the internet. Reading sh*t all the time about anything and everything. Not as bad as a WOW addict, but enough to consider it a problem since it was affecting my school work. From what I can tell about a WOW addict, they do this for fun at first and then they get absorbed into it. Their life falls apart around them and everything just seems like crap. The game doesn't. The game is always fun, welcoming and non-judgemental. The addiction is soothing further reinforcing the need and dependance on the game while their life gets even worse. When they realize this if ever... its too late.

I knew a couple of gaming addicts in high school. It can get pretty bad. Almost like drug addicts, I know some of those too.
 

"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.

A few of my friends tried to get me into it when it first came out in 05. After 60 days, they'd logged 18 full days of gameplay.

Honestly I can't see myself sitting at a pc for that bloody long. I'd rather be out playing sports or at the beach or whatever.
