"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.

interesting read.

realize fellow travelers that much of the advice we hear here comes from a looooooooooong line, a long history of self-help.

and there are nuggets of truth among the crap... a few baubles of pearls among the swine. but we must choose carefully, critically, with discernment.

because primarily, these things are devices meant to bring wealth to one primary beneficiary.... the author!

truly, it is odd that i keep going back to hollywood as the source of great profound wisdom but here it is again, all the more relevant - here from the princess bride:

"life is pain. those who tell you different are trying to sell you something."

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Life is adventure, excitement, and enjoyable to me. There is pain involved, but if life were simply pain humans would have committed suicide long before any of us were born.

Life is as good as you make it.

If you attitude is "life is pain" then you will be depressed and sad and just go kill yourself.

I ENJOY my life!

Isn't that the emo creed?

"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.
