"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.

yea anyway i was watching a movie w/this HB8 yesterday.
First 50 Dates.

and i noticed one of the characters which had the messed up voice, was none other than Sam Wise from LOTR.

i said, hey, that looks like Sam Wise from LOTR.
she didnt have her glasses at the time, so i lent her mines to check if it was him. she said nah it's not him.

NO doubt it was him because i have good photographic memory.
i go "no? oh well"

i know you're supposed to stick up for what you believe in, but i dindt want to seem stubborn and start a debate w/her that she was wrong. If i was w/my guy buddies, i'd stick up for what i believed in.

did i do good in this situation or no? or what should i have done?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

Hmm, dude, who cares? J/K

Look sorry, but it's just that why does it matter?
You could have just stuck to your guns without getting into a debate, but it's not important who is wrong or right. And this was not an important issue. I'm sure she won't bring it up so you shouldn't wither.

You should have punched her in the mouth.

Dude, you did well, sometimes you just have to pick your battles. This does not mean that you have to agree with someone else all of the time or even some of the time. The important thing that you agree or not agree to do is to argue about it. Do you want to be right or do you want things to work? It's a fine line to balance upon.

Now I would bring up with her if it seems to be a reoccurring pattern of her disagreeing with you as if she is challenging you. That isn't cool. If that's the case, definitely ask her about what she feels when you give her information. She could be insecure and internalize that you do not feel that she's very intelligent.

I'm in no way saying that you mean to do that but lets face it, women do not always hear things logically in their emotional minds. Just be ready for the flood gates to open up when you ask her about her feelings.
 

"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.
