"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.

Hi,

I really want to become more social and I think you guys could be of great assistance. i have difficulty opening up, mainly because I'm somewhat shy. I'm not shy around friends but around people i don't know as well, I kind of have a hard time talking. I'm a friendly guy and lots of people joke with me. When in conversation, i would like to become less boring. Maybe give me some stuff to say to "you're looking studly today" (joking) or "what do you like to do?". Just some questions i get asked often, so give me tips on how to answer commonly asked questions adn how to become more social.

thanks
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Go out and do sh­it as much as you can.
Find a Passion, hobbies, or anything you can do to occupy your time besides just being on the computer or video games like i bet you do.

basically, Im/was similar to you, been gettign busy and talkign to ppl and crap and its been working so far, today I was one of the speakers in a large group of like 30 ppl of only like 5 ppl who spoke, I used to frak out about things like that because I was shy, but I keep pushign it, buildign my social skills and basically livign to the standard that I want, and thats slowly paying off.

As for beign less borign and knowign htings to say, I think its all part of how relaxed you are, and thtas what you should work on first instead of things to say, the more relaxed you are the more fun you are.
