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.
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.
I'm with Moroder on this one. What kind of a dad would humiliate his son in front of a camera and then put it of facebook? That's some low TNB sh!t right there...Moroder said:Shaming your own kid and putting the video up on FB. A$$hole father just got a new definition.
What that father wants and what the kid wants to do are 2 different things. My father didn't want me smoking and drinking. Do you think that stopped me from not doing it? People are independent enough to do what want not what their parents believe they should do.Last of the Alphas said:Bokanovsky,
A father who cares about the person his son turns out to be. A father who doesn't want his son's mind polluted by the decaying society we currently live in. A father who is probably disappointed that more of today's youth can name the most recent Justin Bieber song than can name the first 10 amendments to the Constitution.

It's one thing to ridicule him in private. But publicly humiliating your son on the Internet? What purpose does that serve?Last of the Alphas said:Bokanovsky,

Nothing to boast about dumbass.dasein said:Thank goodness I don't have kids or I would almost surely be in jail right now in gynoworld.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

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.
