Your addiction is the least of your problems homie.
"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.
Quiting caffeine
- Thread starter Trez
- Start date
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

How? There are far more interesting hobbies to develop than playing a card game.

Yeah I guess that guy Elon Musk and his wife are complete fags eh? But keep practicing that poker game, I'm sure you'll hit it big ONE DAY.
You should go tell Josh Barnett that he's a fag.

I was joking, one of my friends plays DnD so I can't be too judgmental...also I've never played poker for $ its just something to do with friends.
I was mostly annoyed you thought it could ever be a suitable replacement for the joy of caffeine.

Thought? I do. Seems like you have a deep seated attitude problem that is manifesting through your addiction. My bestfriend was hooked on prostitutes, he gave it up for magic cards. I think you are underestimating the power of the brain to re-tool.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I'd have been on board if you suggested something like kickboxing or jujutsu. Also please realize I'm being mostly sarcastic.

Kickboxing is not addicting, if you become addicted to hurting others you're going to run into big problems.. You asked about effective addiction remedies.
