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 wouldn't know, why don't you enlighten me as to what happened to him, and then get your head out of your rear and think of something for a date. Ice Cream isn't going to ruin your life you know.swaptrex said:ya, but remeber what happened to al pacino after asking a miami beauty for ice cream?
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.

just turned 20 3 days ago, you take girls to the bar after you've got all the bull**** out of the way? seems like back-peddling, to many guys and things that could go wrong for me.... but in your favor you get to grind w/ them on the floor so that would be a start.PRMoon said:Are you 21? If so take her to a bar. That's where it all happens for me anyway.
Well, I'm sorry to hear that....get some Soy Cream then??swaptrex said:i'm lactose intolerant so yaa that would be fun......
