"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.

Ok, I have been asked to play guitar as part of a backing band for a rapper at a venue in London on the 26th.

It is part of a competition, the winner of whom normally is signed to a record deal and gets to play again at the end of the show.

I like to think I can play the guitar, as I have been attempting to do so for the last 6 years!

This gig however is in front of 900 people, which is a crowd quite large and I have never performed in front of this many people before, so I don't want to **** up my performance because of nerves!

You guys got any tips for me on how to build confidence to play this show?

Greatly appreciated, thanks!
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

My first thought is some xanax, valium, or ativan. I don't know if you get down like that but if you do they would be a big help at first. Although you want to watch that they don't become a crutch for too long.

Besides that remember that this isn't your last or only chance. You will wake up tomorrow and start all over again with this life. The important things in your life will still be there whether you kick ass or don't. Being a little nervous is healthy. If you didn't have any you aren't challenging yourself. Just try to keep it in perspective.

Thanks for the advice, It's not that easy for me to get hold of those narcotics so easily but i'm thinking some MDMA off my workmate might help things along.

leave the drugs alone. There is nothing wrong with being nervous, there is something wrong with not facing your fear and getting over it. Keep practicing day and night until you know you know it. play in front of friends and family as often as possible and face your fear secure in the knowledge you know what the hell you are doing.
