"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.

How many ties do you own?

"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.

3 but i don't really like them so I'll probably go out and buy a few quality ones. It's always the quality not the quantity of clothing in regards to men's styles. With women it seems to be the other way most of the time.
 

"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.

I love ties. I have about 20, mostly of which were received as either donations or gifts.

I have 15. I have to wear them at my job 3 months out of the year. You guys should check out Ross, Burlington, Goody's and places like that. Nice ties don't have to be $50; I got the majority of mine for less than $20.

About 15, but I used to work at an apparel company that made ties.

Approx. ten ties. Most are pre-tied (no, not clip-on!) so I can just slip them over my next, tighten, and be on my way.

Probably 40-50 but I only wear maybe 12 - 16 with any frequency. Oddly some tend to slip out of the rotation due to not ONLY new coming in but sometimes an old favorite reenters the queue. Until they wear out.

This wins for most random thread ever.
 

"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.

6? I can't even remember. Having a long, slim, plain black cotton tie is important, and I have yet to find one I am satisfied with.

Ditto. Ties and watches are the simplest things that a guy can choose to change up his wardrobe easily. You don't have to worry about the fit and it's the thing which makes a plain white shirt so versatile.

Me too. I've gotten new ties and collared shirts for christmas since I was 12. Even so I still go out and get new ones.

I have 14 suits, 9 sports coats, about 12 vest, and countless slacks and collared shirts. My secret? The magic hangers :D
