"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.

Who else in here likes Jack Johnson..??? I think he is amazing and a lot of people in here need to listen to him. He'll mellow out all those people who are obsessive about girls.....well him and marijuana.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Jack Johnson is pretty good. Good music. A decent guitar player nothing fancy.

Not sure about the marijuana since I don't do it, but he is for a mellow crowd.

YES!! I love Jack Johnson!

I've been a huge fan for years....definitely before he got so big. Hes awesome, I could play his music on guitar all day long.

Hes touring, coming to NYC in Sept. I'll definitely be there!
 

"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.

Here's what pisses me off about Jack Johnson:

He's too cool for one person. His coolness should be spread out amongst 2 or more people.

He's a champion surfer. He writes great songs. He makes films. That's enough coolness for at LEAST two or more people. Screw Jack Johnson

I picked up his latest CD for my sister, but I listened to it before I gave it to her. I really liked it, wish I woulda gotten a copy of it for myself before going back to campus.

I had no idea that's some of the things he did. Gives me something to strive for. Maybe I can be a rockstar, engineer, actor, and perhaps novelist :)

You should get his first album, Brushfire Fairytales- thats definitely the best one.

I think second best would be On and On,

He just released a new one, which is good as well.
