"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.

lately i've been feeling incomplete... and due i think its cuz of this feeling i cant commit to a relationship.. its gotten to the point that i dont feel im good enough to be in a relationship even though girls want to be with me... i just feel like i have nothing to really offer them..

now its not like im a hobo.. i make very good money, i finished school and have a pretty good education..

i dunno.. just this feeling persists.. im not depressed.. i can go on about my day just fine.. anybody else have anything similar?
 

"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.

You got some kinda problem with hobos? huh?

girls want to be with me... i just feel like i have nothing to really offer them.

The answer lies within the question. Fun is all that matters. If you are fun, they want to be with you. A happy life is a series of connected fun moments. If a girl wants to be with you, then obviously you do it for her. You make her happy and that is what you offer.

Beyond your peripheral vision
I think everyone feels this way sometimes.

Answer this, what do you think a female should offer you, in order for you to want to be with her? This should give you maybe some insight into what YOU have to offer or need to work on.

Ever consider goals which are more esoteric? Things which are more intrinsic and personal rather than accumulations?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Once you start feeling like this, imagine how much worse it would be if you're married to a domineering b!tch and tied down with 2 kids and trapped in a prison of white picket fences... I think it was Janis Joplin that observed "freedom ain't worth nothin' but it's free."

But you can't be bitter and cynical about love, you have to be a true optimist at heart. If you're doing the best you can with your life, then let the chips fall where they may.
