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.
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.
thanks !splinterkb said:I would recommend holding off until tomorrow.. or atleast wait until the night time when you can be sure that everyone is done with their family events. Calling during the day would show poor taste, and you probably wouldnt get any answers. It is mainly a holiday to get together with your faimly, so you should chill for a bit.
I don't know, I disagree. I mean, the best part about holiday's when it comes to calling numbers is that you don't even need to think of a reason to call. It's a holiday.splinterkb said:I would recommend holding off until tomorrow.. or atleast wait until the night time when you can be sure that everyone is done with their family events.

True.. but it will also show that you're disconnected from your family, and I wouldn't want to be interrupted if I was with my family members that I don't get to see much. Yes it does give you a reason to call, but you will always have a reason to call. The reason being you're interested.. Noone calls someone just to tell them Happy Easter.thederekeffect1 said:I don't know, I disagree.

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
I think your talking about ONS.sherineo said:no offence meant here...
but I find that a little desperate....
why do you need to call anyone...easter or whatever...
just relax..laid back...go out ...chicks are almost everywhere
