"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.

One thing that ive noticed when people try to build relationships with those theyve know for a while but have never really talked to is how they bring up prior occurances. For example i heard two girls i know talkin about all this sh*t that happened in the past. I dont really understand the point of this but i do see how it can work. If a girl did this to a guy, bringing up times in the past such as an ex gf or how you b*tched them out, do you think that would have anything to do with anything? I want to hear what you guys think, not just one sentence...put some thought into it please.
 

"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.

It's human nature man... people like to complain, to vent, to "feel understood"... it's their way to connect to other people...
to quote a great analyst from here, " when we say bad things about a person, we always have company, we always have acknowledgement... when we compliment them , we're always alone. It's actually bad, in the eyes of society, to accept a compliment, people refuse it immediately: " No, I just got lucky, I'm not that good..."

The secret for being really happy and not going crazy in this new world is this, to break away from those old paradigms, and do it strongly, so you bring people around you with you... it's positive anarchy...

They assume people care about their lives?

My past belongs to me and those who lived it with me and helped me with it.

Easiest way to make conversation really. Eventually you run out of stories and eventually you start going out and make stories.
 

"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.

i dont see how bringing up the dirt form the past can help building a HS-relationship. Sure if it was a more 'serious' relationship, then I understand. But HS is mainly about having fun and boink around, not to sit down and have deep convos about the past.

When you made your title "LOOK" I avoided this thread until none were left... next time try a title related to the thread... that way I won't have to post this again... I just don't like clicking on something that will most likely decive me or waste my time with useless crap... same reason people don't click on links when they see "capi" attached
