"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.

to be honest, CA,
my friend and i both think you are too "lazy" and arrogant and too full of yourself...and you seem don't even care about anything``

that's what some girl said to me over e-mail
now back in the day, i would've loved to hear this since i was an afc, but now i don't think being egotistical is good. maybe being arrogant is not a good thing. i'm trying to become a nicer guy, but i'm confused on which path to take...
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Reading this takes me back to when I was in high school. I was exactly like this; girls told me I was arrogant or ****y, David DeAngelo told us this is what we were aiming for, though realize later on that his book wasn't meant for high school. Don't become a nice guy, don't become a jerk. Instead, become a leader. I always try to model myself as if I was leading a tribe 10 000 years ago; all my decisions I imagine myself as that leader debating the best outcomes and results. Be nice to women, but be nice to yourself first.

I find you can be ****y, but you really need to up the funniness and genuinely show you're joking - and you can't get away with some of the ****ier statements. War Against Betaism's spot on, be a leader.
