"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 remembered... I remembered how hard it was.

Making friends, you gotta' be a certain "race" sometimes, a certain age, and you gotta know people. I started out with knowing little amount of people, and I had a bit of trouble making friends with certain people. I wondered why. I'm quiet but when i'm not, i don't get the responses I wanted.

I still wonder. Why did i have to go through this? Why is that it is hard for me to make friends with certain people. I can't just go up to them and say hi.. nobody does it that way here in NYC. Anyone else live in NYC?
 

"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.

I go to Stuyvesant High School, so maybe that makes some things different, but I find the easiest way to make new friends is to just introduce yourself to your friends' friends. See someone hanging out with someone you know, then go over there and get to know that new person. I'll admit that just going up to people and saying "Hi" would seem awkward, but I've done it with success myself so don't put it down until you've tried it.

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Well i go to canarsie and i don't find it hard to make friends with males lol. As you said i usually meet friends from other friends our when people are cracking jokes on people. Like say you see your friend in the hallway you would give him a pound and everyone else he is walking with. Thats how i end up usually walking with over 20 people after school.

Now if only i could have got girls without a problem.
