"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 you check your phone and you have 5 Text messages. You're hoping it means 5 dates lined up with 5 women. But they are all from your same one guy friend and they go:

"Hby"
"Hey"
"Dude"
"What's pp?"
"up?"


If I get one more message like this I'm going to break something.

People who communicate like this (namely like a drunk, 12 year old girl) should go to jail. I'm not kidding. Even ISP's (who call this 5 messages) should be arrested. Certain people EXCLUSIVELY text crap like this.

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.

You get way too bent out of shape about how people text. It's probably the same type of obsessive traits that enable you to remember birthdays.

When a guy sends you a one word text like this, he's checking to see if you're around your phone so he can talk to you about what he really wants to talk about. It's no reason to break something. If you get this wound up about texting, maybe you should get rid of your cellphone, or get a plan that doesn't include texting (if they even still have those).

We should remember never to text women 5 messages with one useless comment. You can bet they wish 5 messages were from 5 different guys.
