"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.

So I had a female "friend" tell me that I had mommy issues because I didn't want to date her friend. I didn't want to date her friend because she physically reminded me of my mother. I mean she looked like a younger version of my mother. Now that's not bad thing, my mom is a wonderful woman and not unattractive. I just find it weird to date a woman who looks like my mother. Is that not normal?
 

"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.

This is interesting I can't even date a woman with the same first name as my mother because it weirds me out, let alone one who looks like her!

Your friend was just annoyed you rejected her friend.

Yep.

Any kind of sweeping statement like that is really just a shaming tool/device.

They hope you'll 'prove' them wrong by doing what they 'want' you do to.

Don't read anything into it, I'm sure she didn't put very much thought into it.

The hardest thing for most humans to do is say something like this:

"Even though your opinion is different than I'd like it to be, and even though I disagree with it, I respect it as your opinion and we'll just leave it at that."

It's much easier to say:

"You're Wrong! You are wrong because of X!"

Where X is the first simple to understand idea that pops into their head.
