"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.

I hate the place I live in. I'm a Cali transplant living in AZ. The area I'm living in is mostly left over hippies and retired people, so there is little for the kids to do. Many are into drugs from the hippie element. Two of my friends have dropped out. Another 2 are antisemites who found out I was jewish and turned on me. I have Bible Belt fundamentalist telling me to convert or burn below. The teachers have literally socialist loyalties and judge people on how "capitalistic" they are. I have been harassed a lot because I dropped a class out of objection that I would have to read Leftist literature (it was more to give the area a middle finger than to make a legitimate political point; I'm kind of Left on somethings too but these leftover hippies harass people constantly.) Basicly I'm trying to figure out how to keep my sanity for the next 1-5 years i'm stuck here.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Sounds as though you're pretty much screwed. I'm assuming you're underage and therefore at the mercy of your parents regarding where you live. A question though, if that's the case, what are your parents like? Are they the same type of people, somewhat left back hippies or are they normal intelligent people? Have you discussed any of this with them and do they see eye to eye with you if you have?

I fit were me, I would (with parental approval) screw with everybody as much as is humanly possible. Talk about your "CIA family members" and mention their work on the MK-ULTRA project (nothing messes up a hippy faster than that convo :)). For the socialist teachers, adopt Marxism just for fun, that should baffle them. And nothing works better on Bible Beltists than stone cold logic. Read up on the Gnostic Gospels, the Apocrypha, and the Council of Nicea, then quote anything and everything at every available opportunity. I find that to be awfully amusing, and while you won't change anyone's minds, they usually leave you well alone after that to avoid the confusion associated with being shown facts.
 

"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.

Basically, you're in a place where everyone is either a Nazi or a Communist? Have you moved to Orwell's Farm?
