"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.

So for the new semester in math I was switched into a new class and we were all assigned seats. The teacher grouped up everybody in tables of 4. So at my table theres 4 kids, me, an HB 8.5 and two other kids who know each other. I haven't yet talked to any of my group members since the teacher has been lecturing the whole time. I could have sworn the HB 8.5 sitting next to me kept looking at me and playing with her hair, at one point she even slid her legs under her desk underneath my desk till she made contact with my shoes. Surprisingly she did not immediately take her feet back but she left them for about 10 more seconds. How do you think I should open this girl, should I ask her a question about the homework or something?
 

"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.

Before or after class, you HAVE to say something. First free chance you get. Confident people introduce themselves right away.

If no one else introduced themselves to the hot girl, you can be the first and you won't be any worse off for the delay, but don't waste time! Meet her, as well as the guys at your table, and don't try to overdo anything, just be interested in her. You don't need to hide interest, interest is natural and respected.

The phrase I use before parties to try to focus myself on the right attitude, without overthinking it, is "Simple-cool." You don't have to be spectacular or anything, and often those thoughts can actually make you more shy. Simple and cool is enough.

Bro, just introduce yourself. Then just start making her laugh. Don't overthink what your gonna say. Just be genuine. Make fun of her if you can over little things. Just teasing you know?

Girls always love when I introduce myself. Shows them that I am someone they should know. Which I am. And so is any DJ.
