"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.

I just want to apologize here cause I just created a nonsense post yesterday while I was drunk and I didn't even know why I did that. Hopefully, it was deleted by the mods.

But I just wanted to say that I'm sorry for that. Heard that my mom is having some psychological problems and I already knew she has been depressed for a long time, so this break my heart completely and on those days I end up drinking or eating too much, and yesterday was a day that I drunk way more than I should.
 

"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.

You are anonymous so whatever right?
Basically yes, I just like to clarify and recognize when I make a mistake. Its not like a big deal, but I just think its better to explain than creating missundertoods.

It's all good. Alcohol helped me get through a few recent family deaths. My work wouldn't assist me in getting home to them but I found plenty of bartenders in Central & Eastern Europe that did assist me in getting fvcked up for little money. It has its helpful uses but don't make it a sustained habit.

Yep, Im holding way more withou drinking alcohol nowadays, but when something triggers some trauma or related to my cptsd I usually tend to use it. Slowly Im stopping but still have some relapses.

Sometimes when Im happy I drink only one or two cups and enjoy... Drinking feeling sad is more dangerous.

Wish you the best!
 

"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.
