"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.

Ok, come this week (Fri), some of the female colleagues want me to show them my high school photos, and they'll share theirs to me as well.

Problem is: I don't have any photos from high-school or college cos' I'm a loner back then and don't take photos.
The only photos I took were those in the compulsory school annual yearbooks.

So, on that day, what do I do? What should I say to brush it off?

Btw, I only started becoming "social" early this year. Damn.

Thanks!

"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.

hey, just brush it off, thinking it's just a silly idea and you were busy. Say something like "oh yea, sorry, i forgot". The funny thing, if this wasn't a worry for you and you had lots of pics lying around, you probably would have actually forgot anyway. Look at their pictures with them and joke around and laugh. g' luck

I usually don't have too much advice for newbs but I like your style and the fact that your actually making progress.

You got 2 options, the first is either go and come up with an excuse why you forgot, at which point, people may hound you later and hold you accountable.

The second option is to go with only your yearbook photo, and be straight up, laugh it off how you were a loner back then, that you were a late bloomer. As long as you keep a positive demeanor while your doing it, it won't come back to bite you in the azz.

Don't be ashamed of your past, its what made you who you are today. Learn & grow from it.
