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.
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.
I think cost will prevent this from ever becoming a reality. Plus dumb people will always fvck.I should add, this may not be impossible for long. The future could involve reproduction without sex. One gender could be left in the dust I suppose.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
That's it more than anything. And you can bet anytime any of these hollywood heroes go for an interview, they are coached by their agents and business managers.Ryan Gosling's fan base is female. He is simply telling them what they want to hear, to increase his income.
Makes the women look pretty stupid, but makes him richer.
Good business move
Could you imagine the uproar if he had a boy and a girl. He then states the boy is better at blah blah than her and excels much faster at this and that? The public fan base outcry would be astronomical and call him a misogynist and yada yada. Would take a hit career wise. I think he's red pill, any dude that's a panty dropper like that has to be. Very smart business model to pander to his female fanbaseThat's it more than anything. And you can bet anytime any of these hollywood heroes go for an interview, they are coached by their agents and business managers.
Besides, any dad that has two girls will see the world a LOT differently that red pill MTGOW types.
I doubt it would ever happen. Estrogen and testosterone need each other. Both genders need each other. You can't say that one is superior to another. You'd come up to that stupid conclusion if you have a very linear, one-dimensional thinking. Men and women are different for sure, but being different does not mean one is less or more than the other. Without men, women will collapse on their own, and likewise, without women, we would also collapse on our own.I should add, this may not be impossible for long. The future could involve reproduction without sex. One gender could be left in the dust I suppose.
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.
